Dance Party at The Continental Room


If you missed last week's show at Detroit Bar, then we feel bad for you. It was the first night of the Rye Douglas & The Echo Sounding residency, and they were awesome! Not to mention Inkblots, and White Apple Tree! It was pretty much a dance party all night...


Speaking of all night dance parties!... We're playing a show with two amazing bands at the Continental Room August 17th! Playing with local legends and personal heroes... MOOSTACHE! So you know it'll be a crazy drunken party cause when Moostache and We Are The Pilots get in the same room the debauchery will take hold and things get wild. Wet t-shirt contests, body shots, and maybe some violence. We really can't put into words how much we like this band.

We're also playing with our brothers in arms from San Francisco... Genius and the Thieves! Oh you've never heard of them? Well then you're a bunch of idiots!

Here... they made a video to help you all out with that.

It's a great song, and we can't wait!

Oh did we mention that we're playing an acoustic set?! We pretty much never do that... ever, so it'll be something special.

Recording In Temecula pt.1

We had our first weekend of recoding our next album "Opialet" in Temecula at our own make-shift studio, in a barn, in the heat... First day was a total success! So we jammed late into the night, partied like a bunch of wannabe rock stars in our studio barn... fell asleep in our underwear. Second day, we realized the first day was a waste of time, and then the second day turned into a success! Don't believe us? Check out our little video!



Roozie is a beast on drums. We love him.

June 14th W/ The Steelwells & Denny White! Plus - NEW DEMO!

Our friends The Steelwells and Denny White have been gracious enough to ask us play on their Detroit Bar residency! So of course we said "YES!" If you haven't heard of the The Steelwells, and yet you've some how heard of us I have to suggest you unplug you friggin ears, go to their myspace and cleanse yourself in their sonic bliss. If that's not enough for you then you better check out Denny White's music as well! Just click the names and be whisked away into a musical euphony.

So mark it down on your calendars! June 14th! 9pm SHARP! We'll be opening the show, and as always the Monday residency shows at Detroit Bar are FREE for all! (Over the age of 21) Also, check out all the shows, starting June 7th through the 28th! A few of us will probably be at every single one.

In other news... we are writing... and Tyler has been busy starting to demo song ideas we think we'd like to record for the next record! We're starting to get excited so we'll be keeping this site updated on the happenings of our next record "Opialet." We'll also be updating our YouTube channel as well. Here is a video from the end of last year when we thought we were going to make "Opialet" into an EP.


This record will sound a good deal different than our first attempt because we've got the help of two great members Trisha Smith and Roozie Tehranian! And because I'm so excited, I started giving out a sample of a new demo called "You Would Know" without asking anyone in the band. Sorry guys. We should have some new songs to play at the show for you, so get awesome, and come down!

Give "You Would Know" a listen! We hope you enjoy. It might end up sounding way different, but eh.... who cares. I'm having fun.

You Would Know by We Are The Pilots

Melanoid & Toy Robot


We played The Continental Room last night. It was Mother's Day, but only a few mothers actually showed up. We were all disappointed.

We weren't disappointed for long though because it's super hard not to be in a fantastic mood once Melanoid and Toy Robot start playing! If you're not in the know about these 2 bands then you have some fun homework to do! Check them out right now! To get you started here are some videos...

Both these bands played amazing sets and we are truly lucky to have shared the stage with them! We had a great time and we would like to thank everyone for coming out staying late! It was a great time!

April, You've Been So Good


So we are having a fun and crazy month. April hasn't let us down yet. The OC Tavern show with Big Bad Wolf, and the amazing Billy Kernkamp didn't disappoint. Not even a little. I'm sure some pictures will be making their way up in the photo section at some point... but what we're really excited about is this trippy, fade happy, split screen loving DVD the sound guy was nice enough to make for, us eventually finding it's way to this page. Hopefully soon.

Then after a crazy weekend in Coachella I made my way back to Orange County so we could play the I Promote Good Bands showcase at Proof Bar in Santa Ana. Argyle Smile showcased their new guitarist, and Regrets and Brunettes played a super solid set. Then we got up there and did what we do... drink jack and cokes while playing songs in front of people. I think we pulled it off. It was a super fun show.

So now we have a couple shows in May coming up BUT before that, we have our final goodbye show for April. Goodbye April... you were good to us so we're sending you off right with some Honeypie, and Son Of Heatwave at The Sandpiper (AKA The Dirty Bird) Monday the 26th. Should be one dive bar full of happy-go-lucky barflys that night. If the shows this month are any indicator... this will be one badass time. We've been lucky as shit with the turn out and response at the shows lately. We love you.

ALSO! Today is Roozie's birthday! He is choosing to spend it at Detroit Bar with the Everyday Noise Launch Party! Honeypie is playing a set, and Davy is the house DJ all night! Tell that kid you love him. We do.

See you soon and keep your eyes and ears open and ready for some new stuff we're working on.

love,
kyle
