A Year in Review for TGH

Happy Christmas!

We are just two days away from Christmas and I am excited. It has been a wonderful holiday season this year. It took forever to get the Christmas shopping done, but it was worth it.

2009 has been a good year for us. We played another 82 shows this year. That's down from the 96 we played in 2008 but we did play a lot better shows and better venues. To play 176 shows in two years is great. When you take into account we book all of our own shows and tours ourselves. Not to mention we don't have a record label, management, tour support, sponsorships, or anything else. As independent musicians we bare all the burdens ourselves but its worth it.

We once again had a great year getting our songs licensed into tv, film, commericals, etc. We are so thankfully that licensing companies continue to come to us and use our songs.

We have spent the last several months of this year working on what will be our second record. We are all very excited about the music and the creativity with this record. We have all really grown since our first record in so many ways. Looking back now it's like looking at three kids who had no idea what they were doing. We didn't! We hope to have the record out for a late Spring release.

The best part about 2009 was You! All of our friends and fans who continue to support us and the music we make. It was awesome getting to meet many of you for the first time this year. You have always been the most important part of this band. We would not be where we are today if it was not for you.

We hope all of you have a happy and wonderful holiday season and a great New Year. 2010 promises to be the best year of our lives!

Merry Christmas
Jimi, Andy, Chris
