We want everyone to know how amazed we have been by your support leading up to this release. We are so proud of this record and hope more than anything that you, our fans, love the songs. The exciting part starts now. We come to play a show in your town, and you know the words to all the new songs. So pick up a copy of the new record and we will be seeing you soon.”
