There is something completely magical about this photo.  I’ll give you a hint: there are two members of I am the Heat in the photo.  Wait?  Two?  I see Jameson up there, but who the hell is that guy on the right? That glorious dude is Braden Hasnay, and he just happens to also be our new keyboardist.  There! It’s now official and we have been dying to tell everyone about this.

He’s an old friend and roommate of Mike, they’ve played in a few bands together back in the day, and now he is filling the void in I am the Heat that we didn’t even know we had.  The past month or so at practice has been amazing, adding parts to all our songs for him to play has basically been blowing our minds. Here is the best part, his first show will also be our CD release show this Saturday night.  TIGHT!

Can someone call me tomorrow night and remind me to give Braden a sweet high five, cause he fucking rulezzz. Ok?  Thanks!

It’s a total bummer to have to say this, but our show that was scheduled for this coming weekend in Philly at The M Room has been canceled.  The two bands we were opening for happened to be on tour together and had to cut their dates short, thus only leaving us to play the show.  We know a number of you out there were really looking forward to this (so were we!) because we were finally going to be playing a show near you, but you don’t have to worry, we’re working with the promoter to get us another night at the venue ASAP.

P.S. We have some unrelated EPIC NEWS to tell you about in the coming days, so check back soon to have your mind completely blown away.

P.S.S. We literally can’t wait for the CD release show on August 2nd at The Trash Bar. OMG!?!

Today we are beyond stoked to announce the official release of our newest EP, The Future Doesn’t Need Us.  If unicorns were real, we’d be riding them all over NYC right now with keytars and laser light shows, cause that’s about how awesome we feel right now.

This EP includes 5 tracks of our best work yet.  We couldn’t be happier with the end result.  We set out to create something that was kinda like taking everything that is awesome about the summertime, bottling it up with guitars and synths, putting a totally sweet album cover on it, and then giving it to you.  Like I said, we couldn’t be happier about the end result.

Our CD release show/party time extravaganza is booked for August 2nd at The Trash Bar in Williamsburg.  Hype of the States is opening up for us, and there are rumors that there is going to be someone blowing your mind with her hula hoop skills there as well.  (Not lying).

Check our merch page to buy the CD now. Then go out, get completely drunk (preferably at work, just like me), and then high five everyone!
