new album!

our new album just came out! go take a listen and download it for free over at our bandcamp.

so anyone who actually looks at this blog has probably noticed that we don't really use it anymore. we've kinda just migrated over to facebook. so hit the little "like" button on our facebook and follow us that way to keep up with what we're doin! sound good? groovy.

Visionary

We finished recording the A-side to our digital 7" that's coming out later this fall. The track is called "Visionary". It's rad, but you'll probably have to wait about a month to hear it.

After recording and mixing for the past 9 hours or so, I'm ready to do something else.

bandcamp

i finally got around to putting our single "The Sun!" on bandcamp. it, along with the b-side, are up there for free. grab it here.

first show in 6 months

Last night we played our first show in half a year. It was at Molly Malone's in Covington KY and it was definitely one of the best venues and best shows we've ever played. Definitely a perfect way to get us back in the swing of things. We played with our bros Osteoferocious, but also with Future Trends and Sacred Spirits. I got way sucked in to Sacred Spirits' show because I've been on a shoegaze kick lately and they were definitely kick-ass shoegaze rockers.

A look to the future here: we're playing an after party/dance party for our friend Kevin's wedding June 5th. First off, the fact that he wants us playing at his wedding is just the coolest thing ever. second, check this out:
This is a cute little photo taken the night he proposed... notice anything? Yeah, he's wearing a Tiger Cub shirt. Gets engaged wearing a TC shirt and then has us play at his wedding... KEVIN! YOU RULE!

One last thing.... I found this picture of the twins in one of Kevin's photo albums on facebook. It makes me giggle.

Taylor gets interviewed... you get new songs

Click on the picture below and give the article a read. There's a link for new Tiger Cub songs in there... and Taylor says some rad stuff.

we're back

after taking the long way back across the country - braving mountain passes and snowstorms - we made it back to Indiana. hopefully we'll be able to fit in a few practices before our first show back. what? you didn't hear about that? oh, we're playing at Molly Malones in Covington, KY with Osteoferocious and Traveling By Sea on May 22nd at 8pm. so rad.

The Sun!

The Sun!The Sun!The Sun!The Sun!The Sun!The Sun!The Sun!The Sun!The Sun!The Sun!The Sun!The Sun!The Sun!The Sun!The Sun!

Howard Moon

our new song "Howard Moon Colon Explorer" has been posted on the myspace. we were going to wait, but the song really needs to be heard in the winter. hope you enjoy it... and we'll keep you posted on the progress of our upcoming EP.

LOS ANGELES

we made it to LA. here are some pictures to sum up how the rest of our trip went.








Bobby?







The view from my room. not too shabby.


We are all quite content here in Los Angeles and very excited for the semester ahead of us. and just because we're across the country doesn't mean there won't be new Tiger Cub tracks. actually, i'm promising you one by the end of the week. hold me to it.

-Stephen
Tiger Cub

so stoked

in 13 days we begin our adventure. we will drive to Los Angles, get internships, make some short films, and write new music that will undoubtedly be inspired by our experiences. here's our travel plan:

Jan 1st - I, Stephen, drive up to Wheaton and pick up the twins.
Jan 2nd - We leave for LA.
Jan 3-9th - Say your prayers for us while we venture across the U.S. in our '93 Dodge Ram 250 conversion van.


So what does this mean for Tiger Cub? I guess we'll just have to wait and see. we're taking many instruments and all of our recording equipment out with us, so it is quite possible that a new (although i'm sure quite different) EP might appear. we are also traveling with multiple cameras and video cameras... so a music video could come from that. i've really been wanting to a music video (I'd like to do it to "Let's Go Somehwere" if that's ok with the twins. it seems appropriate for the circumstances and that song rules.).

we'll keep this updated while we're away. we'll be back in May... and we'll be itchin' to play some tunes.

about last night...

so. some of you may have heard.

Halloween was awesome. started out the day at midnight in Anderson. what a crowd, thanks to all who showed up. it was a sweaty ghoulish time.

then at 9 pm in upland, the biggest house show in upland ever commenced.

Owlsburg played an awesome set.

Osteoferocious played an awesome set. i crowd surfed.

We played... one and a half songs.

and then the cops shut us down. damn.

apparently you could hear us all over upland. thanks to jonathan w. for running sound!

oh well. more shows to come. hopefully law enforcement free.

i want to send thanks to everyone who showed up at 220 joyce for a piece of upland history. that was a lot of fun, sorry for the disappointment, we appreciate the support, thank you!

anyway, things i have been thinking about.

New digital EP in the works.
New digital co-op with Osteo in the works.
I want to do a Christmas EP... with Osteo, perhaps?

Possible title:

o little town of bethlehem (steel) ?

i dig it.

cub love,

Jamison

Updates, Pekin, Los Angeles, Halloween.

We are currently working on a new EP, probably a free download. Mainly songs that are new//are too bizarre to fit on the album.

Pekin was awesome. Thanks to all who came out. Kudos (bars?) to the crowd surfers.

We have a semi-double header thing going on this weekend, BECAUSE IT'S HALLOWEEN.

On Friday//Saturday Oct. 30th/Oct. 31st we have a midnight show at The Flop in Anderson, IN. with our good mates from Osteoferocious.

Saturday is LABYRINTH PARTY on 220 Joyce St. in Upland, IN. Halloween party with David Bowie and his goblin king greatness.
We'll be playing at 9pm. Again with Osteoferocious!

LAFSC
As you may have known Jamison, Stephen, and I have all been accepted in the Los Angeles Film Studies Program.
Ideally because we all want to help make movies.
Really for all of us, it is a way of testing the waters and seeing if this is the occupation that we want to do after college.

Which means, while we're in LA, no shows. (sad face.)
That doesn't mean no music! I personally hope to put up bizarre, raw, Tiger Cub demos for the people to enjoy.

This isn't the last of our updates either. I'm sure you'll find more updates plaguing this blog.

cublove.
