I guess I haven't written on here in a while so here are some updates for those of you who read this. Things have been pretty busy for us up here on Boston's North Shore. Since I've written last, we've had t-shirts pressed (you can get them for $10 at drivenrecords.bigcartel.com), played a couple of shows, and discovered some pretty sweet reviews of Redivivus where people have been way too kind to us. It's been a blessing to see how God is using our music.
To recap, we played a show up in Plaistow, NH on November 20. It was our first one without John (he's in Italy and will be coming back in a couple days if you didn't know) and it went pretty badly. Lots of technical difficulties and we didn't play nearly as well as we would have liked. We're really looking forward to having him back and getting settled down into a new five-man line up. Rafaell will stay on bass and we will have three guitars. I'll be playing more glockenspiel and piano if we can figure out how to work it in.
Last night we played in Lexington, MA at Trinity Covenant Church which was a much better show and a lot of fun. We played before a rap group called New Legends which I can safely say is the first time that has ever happened.
We're really excited to see things moving forward and we're looking to play out more (shoot me an email at glassamericaband@yahoo.com if you want to book us) and get more press. We're looking at a radio show in Boston that wants to interview us and play our music so hopefully that will happen in the near future. We've also been in contact with members of bands that we're huge fans of (Underoath, Caspian, The Glorious Unseen...go check them out), getting feedback on our music which has been very helpful.
Again, thank you so much for your continued support. We really appreciate it as we press on in this into the new year and beyond.
Jared
