In My Imagination

If you read these posts then you’ll know that we’re putting out a new album on April 24th of this year. The new album, In The Cuts, is 12 previously unrecorded, unreleased new songs that we’re very excited about. If you’ve come to any of our shows in the last year then you’ve heard some of these songs, but on April 24th you can listen to them anywhere, any time. Ahead of the release of the full album we are releasing one song that is commonly referred to (in the industry) as a single. I’m sure most of you were already privy to that though, as the readers of this blog are highly intelligent folks. Anyway… On Friday March 13th we will be releasing In My Imagination to all the streaming services (or at least all the ones we’re aware of) where you listen to music. So that means Spotify for most of you. We hope you take roughly 3 minutes out of your day and listen to the song, and then we hope you enjoy it. We think you will. Thanks for listening to it and enjoying it. Here’s a little bit about the song.

“In My Imagination was the last song I wrote for the album. It was inspired by an idea I had to write a kids song of all things. It evolved into something slightly more sophisticated when I came up with the chords for the chorus. I brought it to the band and our producer Tim Bluhm, and we came up with a pretty cool arrangement. It instantly became one of my favorites to sing, especially with all the moving parts on the outro, and I was quite pleased with how that section came out in the recording particularly.“ –Jamie Coffis

“Every year at Thanksgiving our parents ask us to play some music for the rest of our family. We always reluctantly say yes and play a few songs together, but this time Jamie said he had a new song he had just written. That was the first time I heard In My Imagination. It was just a few weeks before we were going into the studio, so a few days before we went to record, we got the band together along with Tim and came up with a nice arrangement. I think it’s one of the best songs Jamie’s ever written and has become one my favorite songs from this band.” –Kellen Coffis

Coming Soon – In The Cuts

We are very excited to announce that we will be releasing our fourth full-length studio album titled In The Cuts on April 24th. In The Cuts, produced by Tim Bluhm, is our first release since the Back To The Rubble EP in 2019 and our first full-length album since Roll With It in 2017. In The Cuts was recorded at 25th Street Studios in Oakland and Tim’s House in Fairfax over the course of 2019. We have several more exciting announcements coming soon. Stay tuned.

Kate Wolf Round IV

After a year away we are returning to Laytonville, California in June to spend another weekend at the 25th Anniversary of the Kate Wolf Music Festival. We first played the Kate Wolf Festival in 2015 after years of hearing about it from festival goers and festival players. We had a quick turn around and came right back in 2016, and returned once more in 2018. Each year has been enjoyable and memorable in its own right so we’re looking forward to seeing what 2020 has in store. We remember 2015 for being so mother effing hot that putting on jeans and walking onto a stage with no shade was borderline dangerous. In 2016 we took our newly learned Everly Brothers set out of Santa Cruz for the first time, and in 2018 we backed up John Craigie on a set of Tom Petty songs in front of a most raucous crowd before waking up at 5am to drive to a casino to watch the World Cup.

In the three years we’ve played at Kate Wolf we’ve been Coffis Brothers, Everly Brothers, and the Heartbreakers and this year we’ll be bringing another set of music to you as we back up Tim Bluhm for a couple sets. Since we started backing Tim in 2019 we’ve talked about how Kate Wolf would be a great place to bring this band, so we’re very excited to actually be doing it and not just talking about it. In addition to backing Tim we’ll be playing a set of our own music so it will be another busy weekend at the Kate Wolf Music Festival, but we wouldn’t want it any other way. We’ve met a ton of you Kate Wolfers over the years so we’re excited to tell you that we’re coming back to Kate Wolf. See you in Laytonville in June.
