WILL Posted around July 14, 2006
• Hey everybody. We just had a killer couple of weeks filled with press, photos, and an incredible video shoot that I know youre gonna love. Things are going great and I’m really getting excited for the new album. Unfortunately, I have some sad news. A few weeks ago, Will decided to leave the band. He said that he just cant go through with another huge tour right now, and wants to stay a little closer to his family instead. Touring is hard – you kind of have to sacrifice your life for it, so we can all understand. We love Will very much and wish him nothing but happiness in everything he does. We’ve been playing music together since I was in jr. high. I miss him already! I love you guys, don’t worry about the band- nothing has changed in the schedule and were all excited to get out there and play again. See you soon!
love amy
WHARP AND NARNIA Posted around July 14, 2006
• (…) my new goal.. To aquire and master the harp. Cant be that different, right?
• ps- about all this narnia crap- nothing was sliced, diced or sacrificed. The song I wrote for the movie is still in tact- when I wrote it, I wrote a really long instrumental intro that is different from the rest of the song. Its just a piece of music. It turned out to be the perfect segway into the last song on the album. chillax!
‘HAPPY CUPCAKE SPRINKLY FUNLAND – THE ALBUM!’ Posted around July 13, 2006
• hi guys. part of me thinks it would be best not to say a word about the first single, because the only way to really appreciate or ‘get’ the title of the song is to hear it- BUT- i just want to assure you- no rainbows or butterflies. Call me when you’re sober is cool to me because the lyrics are so blunt, its impossible to misinterpret. Im just getting a little braver, thats all. I wrote it pissed off and finally ready to change my life after putting up with way too much. Its not a pop song, its not a ballad, it rocks. But it isn’t “typical evanescence” either. I hope you all love the record, i know i do, but just one tip about it- each song really has a life of its own. It would be impossible to judge the record on one song alone. Some are much heavier than weve ever been before, some more soulful, some more fun- the only word that really describes all of them is “more.” …as I’m reading this I still think its all meaningless without hearing the album. Just be open minded, because I wasn’t aiming to give people what they expect.
i love you guys!!! almost there!
