Welcome!

February 3, 2012

Well friends, it's time we made it official. Deep breath....here it is:

On February 10th, we, the lady and gentlemen of Branches, are releasing our first full-length album, Thou Art The Dream!!!

After months and months of dreaming, writing, laughing, recording, and traveling, we couldn't be happier about the thirteen songs we're getting ready to release to you. Experimenting with broader sounds, instrumentation, and imagination, this album is something we're incredibly proud of, and its debut couldn't come soon enough!

With that, we are releasing our single, "Helicopter" for free on NoiseTrade now!!



So here's how this works...we give you "Helicopter" for free, and then you help us out by telling all your friends and family about it so that millions of people hear and fall in love with our music. Pretty genius, right? Hopefully once you've heard "Helicopter", you'll be as excited as we are for the rest of our album, and want to come join us for a night of singing the next time we come through your town.

That said, we'd be honored if you would watch this little promo, download "Helicopter", help us spread the word, and then join us in our excitement for this new album...



Thanks again!

Love,
Branches

Well, it's been an amazing couple of months.
We have made some new friends, written some new songs, and have been granted some amazing opportunities.

The first exciting piece of news (redundant as it may be) is that we have a new website!! Welcome to it! This site was designed by our insanely talented friend Greg Christian over at Sticks Stones in San Francisco, and we couldn't be happier about it. This will be our main hub from now on as we update you with news, photos, merch, and more good stuff in the future.

Secondly, as you may have seen on our welcome page, we are releasing our first full-length album NEXT MONTH. Jeez. Too cool. This album has been nearly a year in the making, and features what we believe to be the most exciting and honest songs we've ever written. We can't wait to share them with you. Stay tuned in the coming weeks for a more in-depth preview...

Thirdly, and more immediately, we are so excited to say that our song, "Sleeper"* will be featured on the season premier of One Tree Hill tonight, Wednesday 1/11 at 8/7c on the CW! This is our second time being featured on OTH and we're stoked for round two. Tune in with us and see what antics those crazy teenagers are up to this time around...
*To hear "Sleeper" in its entirety, go here.

OK. Phew. I think that's everything. Thanks for reading, for listening, and for hanging out. You're the best.

Thanks, and stay tuned!

Love,
Branches
