The band released two albums, an EP entitled “So Say We” in 2005 and the full length “God Speed Jack Ketch,” which was released on Burnt Carbon Records in 2008.

“We never got to give our fans an official goodbye,” quips vocalist Rob Scanlon, “that's what this is about, closure.” All members of the band's original touring roster will reunite for the farewell show including: Rob Scanlon (vocals), Joey Onifero (Drums), Rob LaRock (guitar), Martin McLaughlin (guitar), and Brain Stanislawski (bass).

The Old Stone Church UCC, located at 251 Main Street in East Haven, CT will play host to the band's final show. “We played there when we were coming up; it feels like home.
