We’ve been given the chance to achieve one of our biggest dreams – we’re competing in the Mercy Lounge Road to Bonnaroo Competition on Monday 3/26 for a chance to play BONNAROO!
So we took to the streets to ask about your dreams, and you delivered in a huge way!
If you’re moved by the positive message of this video, please share it – and come cast your vote Monday night to help make our dream a reality.
Thank you for being you!
Enlighten your mind! Saturday 3/10 We return to play our first show since tracking the new EP, at The Boro Bar & Grill on Greenland Drive in Murfreesboro, TN. Join us with fellow ‘Boro band, and Scientific Prog-Rockers The Water Fight, who tore the house down at our last ‘Boro show together. Included in the lineup are Knoxville’s Indie-Folk, Post-Rock Troubadours Maps Need Reading and a special performance by Bellingham, Washington’s Hooves, on tour and headed to SXSW!
Also, you should be ready to party because March 10th just happens to be Max Farmer’s birthday! He will be our guest of the honor for the evening and everyone will be expected to purchase him beverages.
Recently, I came to the realization that life is about the journey, and that if I only focus on the destination, then I will never truly be content because I’ll always be longing for something more. This is the new life philosophy I’ve been attempting to put into practice as of late.
However, I’m a goal-oriented human being. Quite frankly, I get a thrill out of setting a goal and creating a multi-colored, 12-step, neatly planned out path to get there. That’s just who I am…
So, I decided I needed to discover my own philosophy. Something that combines these two schools of thought into one life-altering way of thinking. My mind races and worries far too much for the complacency of the journey, but I am cognizant of the dangers of never appreciating life’s voyages.
However, my post really isn’t to tell you what I discovered or what my plan is. It’s to encourage you to create your own philosophy. There are a lot of extremely wise, experienced individuals in this world who can offer the greatest of advice. Take it in, by all means, but use it to help you create your own way of thinking as opposed to just using it to be your way of thinking.
We’re all on a case-by-case basis. You know your thoughts, feelings, experiences, and expectations. Learn from people, books, lyrics, etc., and use such knowledge to formulate ideas that best suite YOU! Give yourself credit, and allow yourself to do so. Know that ultimately it is you that provides the best course of action for your life.
Be proud of yourself!

It’s been a killer week for your favorite ponder rockers, Static Revival, as we emerge from Nashville’s House of Blues Studios with a brand new shiny EP – at least the basic tracks, anyway. Working with Producer Ronnie Thomas of R.L.T Production, Management and Mastering and Denver Cavins of Inertia Media, we are excited to say we’re well on our way to giving you our finest material to date. The 6 track demo was recorded at House of Blues Studio “D” – the famed building that was literally moved from Memphis to Nashville to preserve it’s one-of-a-kind vibe and appeal. This place is dripping with cool, and as artists we found the room to be refreshingly easy to get into the mood and deliver the kind of jaw dropping energy and intensity we’ve wanted to accurately capture for so long. With a state-of-the-art Pro Tools 10 HD setup and a custom made Neve & API board, we heard our music in a beautifully clear fashion we’ve never experienced. The result is fantastic, you’ll all be pleasantly surprised! As a band, we were happy to share the experience with our fans as we live streamed the sessions on USTREAM.com. Special thanks to everyone who joined in with us as we experienced this fantastic opportunity. In case you missed the live stream, check out Cory and Jon giving a tour of the studio here.
The band would like to thank all of the talented individuals who worked with us to bring this project to life:
Denver Cavins
Ronnie Thomas
Ricky Cobble
Tom Freitag
Thomas Garzarelli
Mike Rojas
Gentlemen, thank you for helping us bring these songs to life in ways we never thought possible. We really could not have done it without your direction, your assistance, your contributions, and of course your patience! Thank you for being you.
