In other news:
After over 2 and a half years of battling brain cancer our very good friend John Schultz has passed away, you may remember John from many of our shows filming us from the balcony of Clearwater or the side of the stage or just hanging out with us by the merch. We are all speechless right now, and we are just asking that your prayers go out to his family. He will be missed by all of us and so many others, He was one of the bravest, kindest people I personally have ever known, Just being around him made me a better person, They don't come like John anymore, A true testament to positivity and strength he was, Our album "roses are blue" will be dedicated to him upon it's release this summer. Look for his name on the back, He is/was the man,
We miss you Johnny Silk Shirt.
