We’ve been meaning to do a giveaway for a while now, and it’s happening as of RIGHT NOW, just in time for the Christmas season.

We have some freshly pressed digipaks and tees! And we’re going to some stuff away.

So here is how this works.

The contest runs until Christmas Eve (December 24) at 10:00 a.m. Pacific Standard Time. The winner is chosen from our mailing list and will get a free signed digipak of Stop & Go, a Deer Park Avenue t-shirt, a printed copy of lyrics and liner notes that we are making, and a feature/shoutout on our Facebook, Twitter, and website. (If you’re in a band, we’ll feature your band!!)

And it’s here.

After an amazing CD Release Party last night in a packed Café Cordiale with some awesome people and great music from the Gregg Bissonette Quintet, our new album, Stop & Go, is officially out! It’s soaking through the digital retail scene and you can find it on iTunes, CD Baby, Amazon, and more all around the world. We are so excited for it!

As in the last EP, there are no liner notes in this one, but there are SO many people we want to thank for their help in making this all come together, especially…

There is a LOT we are thankful for this year. We have been in and out of California — all over the left coast — to Europe and back — twice — have a brand new album out — Stop & Go — a CD Release Party with one of our musical heroes — Gregg Bissonette — met Jon Bon Jovi — :: swoon :: — and have a whole album’s worth of new material to record.

More than anything, we are thankful for the people in our lives who make all of this possible to enjoy — family and friends — all of YOU who encourage us, inspire us, and connect with us…

We had such an awesome time this morning with the fun cast and crew of Great Day, the San Joaquin Valley’s morning show. It was a super early morning for us (we woke up at 4!) and totally worth it, thanks to the yummy sandwiches our aunt made us the night before. Yes, sandwiches at 5 a.m. is not even messing around. All in a day’s work.

This is the full interview from Friday with the one and only Mikey Jayy of The Great Unknowns, All Indie Magazine. Many thanks again to him for asking us on the show. What a great time we had!! We’re so happy to get Stop & Go out for you soon.
