Quick update: We’re turning our record release show at Johnny Brendas August 30th into a benefit for Trevors family and drummer Greg Lytle (who was seriously injured but is now in stable condition). It’s still going to be the record release party, and Capitol Years and Bitter Bitter Weeks are still playing, but all proceeds will go to the cause. To buy tickets click here.
