Q: Last year you released a record in August. How was the feedback so far? What is the next step?
A: The feedback has been awesome, especially at the beginning (we sold more in pre-orders and in the first week on itunes that we had ever sold in an entire month of previous releases). I think the coolest thing about it is that we continue to keep selling the entire album, as opposed to just one or two popular singles. It shows that we really do have a dedicated fanbase that wants to listen to an entire CD of our music, and it's not just one catchy song that is blowing up on the internet. It is rewarding because having an album really sell well these days is rare, and a lot of labels and bigger name
producers/managers won't even count on selling albums, just singles. I think the next step is to just keep releasing quality music, and hopefully songs that are written better, produced better, and performed better.
