CO 102 Blog #5 - With The Punches

This week I discovered a band that I now love very much. They are called With the Punches, a band originating from Newburgh, NY. These five guys have taken their love of music and a dream and turned it into a reality.

In 2009, With The Punches released their first EP called "Keep it Going." This EP is the first bit of With the Punches I came across. My best friends have a band called Reckless Serenade (the band I wrote my first blog on) and they are lucky enough to have booked a show with With The Punches. The guitars from Reckless Serenade, Mark, happens to be my best friend and introduced me to With the Punches.

With The Punches' next big move was the release of their second EP in March of 2011 called "It's Not the End of the World." After this, the band went back into creative mode to start work on their first full length album. They spent the next few months in the creative process then headed to the studio to record the album "Seams & Stitches"which was just released on July 3, 2012.

The band is now headed on a tour of the country with their friends I Call Fives. They will be performing in different cities around the country from October 19 to November 23 in the US then they will head to the United Kingdom for two shows in December.
