April Tour Update.
Quick update on the April tour… The official dates for my April tour alongside Holiday Parade, Goot, The Icarus Account, and A Letter To You are on the flyer below.
You may notice some of the original dates missing… Unfortunately, due to circumstances completely beyond my control, the NJ, NY, and VT dates have been cancelled. ALL OTHER DATES ARE STILL HAPPENING. As for the NJ, NY,...
No one.
No one in the level of the music “scene” I’m in now speaks up about anything regarding real world issues, and it bothers the hell out of me. Seriously, if you have a voice, use it. I don’t care which side your on, just fight for something real. Hell, just show me you have fight in you… Because I feel like I’m surrounded by a bunch of great artists that have no...
Wonder Deluxe Mixup.
For those of you who pre-ordered a copy of The Wonder EP DELUXE EDITION from my online store…
Some noticed, and many didn’t notice, but so you know, you WERE supposed to receive a signed photocard with a download link (for the 4 extra tracks) with your package. There was a miscommunication between myself and the people at my online store warehouse, and the photocards accidentally...
Album Progress (day three).

The song I’m speaking of has been through many changes before finally finding its spot in the final tracklisting of this new record… It started out as an opening line that came to me a couple years ago which simply said, “Goddamn, it’s a great day for a love...
The Daydreamers. →
This spring I’m launching a completely re-imagined street team for Backseat Goodbye. Feel free to follow the new blog for the team @ thedaydreamers.tumblr.com.
Weird.
I get this funny/proud/awe-inspiring feeling when I see Backseat Goodbye listed amongst bands I love and look up to… Especially when I really look close and realize I’m the only one on the list that isn’t signed to a label. Makes me feel like I’m doing something right…
Album Progress (day one).
And so, I begin the documentation of my second full-length album with this post…
Here’s where the album stands, thus far: Possible Songs - 18 Recorded Demos - 3 Finished Lyrics - 4
I’m shooting to choose just 10 songs for the album’s final tracklisting once this is all said and done… With plans to give the left-over songs a home as bonus tracks & b-sides. I...
