2.20.2013 Hi there! I'm really really glad you've stopped by. Not 100% sure yet but I'm leaning towards making our new CD "The Headstrong Percy Shaw & Dunloy Coy #1" available online (CDBaby, iTUNES, AMAZON, etc). For now though, you'll have to come out to one of our shows if you want a copy :P I did just finish putting together a video for "Walking Street" (from the new album) that you may enjoy...
1.25.2013 Well, our new album is officially out! We had a great time this past weekend at our CD release show and would like to thank everyone again who made that possible! I've posted all the lyrics from the new album on the lyrics page so feel free to check that out. I haven't decided whether or not to make the new album available online yet. So for now you'll have to come out to one of our shows for a copy :P Or, if you're in the Harford County area you can stop by CODA Records on main street in Bel Air and pick one up there! We've got three more shows coming up in the next few weeks that you can find all the details for on the shows page. Finally, I'm hoping to put together a video for Walking St. I'll keep you posted on that. Bye!
1.8.2013 Happy New Year! We are very excited to announce that we'll be releasing our new album "The Headstrong Percy Shaw & Dunloy Coy #1" in less than two weeks! Our CD release show will be held on January 19th at Longshots in Abingon, MD. Check out the shows page for the details.
12.6.2012 It's December already Wow! I hope you are doing well and getting all your shopping done with a minimal amount of altercations at shopping centers. I guess the biggest announcement is that we'll be releasing a new full length album in January! Tentatively entitled "The Unfaltering Percy Shaw and Dunloy Coy: Volume 1". Arrangements are being made as I type this update for the release show. The date will be January 19th and it'd going to be at Longshots in the beautiful backroads of Abingdon, MD and it's shaping up to be one really fun night! We've also added several more shows in the months of Dec. and Jan. check out the shows page for the details. Finally, I had the awesome opportunity to record a live performance this week that sounds pretty dog gone amazing. I was contemplating releasing it in addition with the studio tracks on the new record but I'm leaning towards releasing it separately now. Will keep you updated on that. Hope you have the happiest of happy holiday seasons :) -Percy
10.23.2012 Wooohooooo! My new EP "Lv. 30 Loner" is done! and you can download if FOR FREE now on the discography page! I had so much fun working on it.

9.21.2012 Recording has begun on the new album! Most rhythm guitar tracks are done and I'm planning on working on some drums this weekend time-permitting. I'm shooting for early 2013 to have it finished. Between now and then I'll be releasing a short EP that you'll be able to download for free here. That should be up sometime in October. I was going to take a break from gigging during the recording process but I've changed my mind about that and I will be announcing some fall and winter shows soon :)
8.8.2012 We're getting ready to record a new full length album! probably going to get started in the next week or two and really dig in in early fall with the goal of releasing it in early 2013.
