6 track album
we are an acoustic/melodic/emo/folk/boy-band from Halifax, NS. We have songs about feelings. Download our album for free if you want. wooo! Also, get at me if you want a physical copy (cd).
sorrel ravenspreken and hollie from snailparty!
I am very aware folks have issues with my house (the burrow) and I am all ears if anyone wants to talk to me about my house, my personal politics, hwf, or anything else. I am all down for productive and honest communication, not for the sake of community (which I see less and less in Halifax) but…
hi there. i’m not in halifax right now but i will be there at the end of the month for hwf at which i will be preforming as myself and i’m very excited about that, i dont have a tumblr where i would want to post this sort of thing and i feel like more people will see it if i just post here anyway. basically, i too would like to have more conversations about my house (the burrow). it seems that my choice to live there and to be a part of the family that resides within is confusing and somehow hurtful to some of the people i love and care about.
in the past i have been ignorant of exactly what everyones beef was, but during the winter it all became quite clear for me through several conversations, i felt a little embarrassed for defending something i really didn’t know a lot about (the instance when the burrow endorsed rape culture by allowing a perpetrator into its space) and my personal failure to learn about my houses history before defending it is the thing that i feel i need to apologize for.
only a handfull of people know me, and i like it that way. but with hwf coming up i feel that i may need to put myself out there a little bit so that some people can feel a little more comfortable sharing a space with me, not that i really give a shit about what an almost complete stranger thinks about me as an individual, but that stranger might be important to someone i love, and this problem is much much bigger than that i guess.. thats why i’m using my voice i hope that i articulated that in a way that can be understood.
yes, so where i stand now is here. i acknowledge the mistakes of my house in the past and wish to be accountable to the people who i love and maybe the people who i may know in the future, basically i’d like to talk honestly with whoever wants to talk to me. i’d also like it to be known that i have no qualms with the way that the burrow exists today knowing that all of this is a work in progress, i see the steps that have been taken but the steps ahead are a little dark and blurry. if you feel that i you can shine a light on these for me then please know that i’m easily convinced by honesty and calm and very willing to listen. yah. email me at iambeyon@gmail.com or talk to me when i get home from providence.

hi there! this is what i have been working on since the winter. if you want to get involved or have any ideas for us please email Jess and I at loveholdletgo@gmail.com this project focuses on community based shows and the intention is to make each aspect of it as much about the community we are visiting as it is about what we are doing together. i’m not sure what else to say. if you are interested, please check out our website: www.loveholdletgo.com (we will be updating the site constantly so stay tuned!) i cant wait to see all of you who i’ve met during snailparty tour and beyond that. i miss you, see you this summer!

i love you. bus is safe
DEAR HALIFAX: ON MONDAY, BYLAW WILL TOW AWAY THE BUS AND SCRAP IT. i am 3000km away and feeling completely helpless. if anyone is able to help who lives close by, i would be eternally grateful. what i need is a parking space where it will be safe until i get back in march. at which point, bus will be reinsured and drivin to its secret permanent home where it will be safe from bylaw and slumlords and jerks forever and ever. PLEASE HELP! -Beyon



(the bus is approximately 10’ by 17’, for anyone living close by who may have room for it)

Shows pay for propane, and also sometimes credit card debt. We are able to do what we do with the help of a lot of friends; most of us travelled the country a few times before ever touring, and the people we met helped us to book shows. There are also websites like dodiy that can be useful when doing tours. As for writing and playing music, that is a matter of time. We can take months off on end because we always live in communal housing, sometimes nine or ten kids to house. This makes rent affordable, and the transient style of these houses means that we can crash a couch there for a bit while we get our shit together. We also do things like getting our food out of the dumpster and just parking the bus in a park and living there. Some of us brew our booze instead of buying it, some of us dont drink at all. We bum smokes and money. We have low standards and are in general very poor, all the time. Doing these tours fuck us over pretty hard sometimes anyways, even after everything. They are mentally, financially, and physically draining. They are also really fun, and rewarding in non-financial senses. If you want to do this, I would say be ready for the first while to be out of pocket and to sacrifice a lot of living standards. Or do your first tour on the coattails of someone famous.

So, dear tumblr, I am probably going on tour as bitterfucked with Cud Eastbound, Beyon Champagne, and Rodeo. These are what the dates will most likely not actually look like, because it is mid-oct right now and tour doesn’t start until jan and booking inevitably changes a lot even while you’re…
So, I am going to ride the tailcoats of the more famous band I am in a bit here and reblog this.
Also Beyon and bitterfucked are members of Snail Party, will likely be performing at least some Snail Party songs and also will almost definitely be distro-ing Snail Party merch. So, if you’re east coast/southern states and want to hear some stuff that might vaguely remind you of Snail Party, book us some motherfuckin shows!

after polling the two closest people to me in the internet cafe, it has been establishe that no, housewife instead like to eat boy. comme mangez.
the other most popular response was to pointedly not look at me.
