FEATURED NATIONAL ENTERTAINMENT: SINGLE FILE
While there is undoubtedly a universal quality to the Denver-based rock trio’s story – that hard work and unswerving dedication to one’s craft can pay off, particularly when combined with a little luck – it’s probably safe to say that most people don’t spend a big chunk of their twenties tooling around the U.S. in an RV named Maggie Mae and nipping into gas stations to fill its water tank before the attendant catches on. “We were little pirates, just living in this crappy RV,” says Anderson.“We drove, we promoted on MySpace, we played shows – that’s all we did,” remembers Joe Ginsberg, who alternates on bass and guitar with Anderson. “We’d post – ‘hey, if you want to bring non-perishables or water to the show, we’ll hook you up with some free merch.’”“It’s important to maintain a sense of humor, because if you can’t laugh at yourself and at the things that happen to you, you’re not really enjoying life to the fullest,” adds drummer Chris Depew.
