About

Allow us to describe five songs and twenty-eight months in three hundred words or less.

This March, Calling Out Closer introduces Spaces, our first release since The Parallel EP (2009) and Stars and Broken Hearts (2008). We chose five songs that best displayed our version of indie & alternative rock, drove to Nashville's Viking Studios, and recorded what we couldn't wait for you to hear. A mini-album we had hoped that you (and we) would have heard a bit sooner.

But much has happened in the last two-plus years. We've twice toured independently across the country, as well as played numerous local and regional shows. We've written and rewritten over fifty songs; expanding, redesigning, and honing in on exactly what a Calling Out Closer song should be. We've crafted a live show that demonstrates the energy and passion we put into our music. We've planned, we've prayed, we've prepared.

Twenty-eight months. Five songs. Lots of questions. And a few answers.

Spaces showcases where we're headed by examining where we've been. It finally grounds us in the present; a present drawn from an incredible year of touring, writing, and recording. We've written what we've known: changes, patience, anticipation, excitement. 2012 promises more of the same.

So file these words away, take a listen, come out to a show, and we hope to see you soon.
