Post-production is officially complete on our full-length - let the album cycle begin! Sorry for not being as vocal lately friends but we’ve been very busy behind-the-scenes. Songs are recorded, mixed, and mastered. Artwork is now complete as well. Just a few more larger items on our check list to attend to but we’re cruising…lots of exciting news TBA!
We’re so close to our goal friends but we need you to rally! Only 10 days remain on our Kickstarter campaign…
If you’re reading this, YOU are a part of the TUV family. YOUR contribution, no matter the amount, CAN and WILL make a difference to our Kickstarter campaign’s success - we can finally record the album we want for YOU and during this fun process you get rewarded for your help.
Hurry up - rewards are going fast and some have even sold out.
If there ever was a time to join the cause that time is now…
Together we can create this album!

The day has come friends and we have a huge announcement…
We’ll be recording our first full-length album next month. It’s amazing to think about, but we started this band in 2006. It’s taken us on a crazy journey - countless shows, recordings, travels, new friendships, and experiences we never thought possible. This has been in part due to YOU and for that we thank you. We want YOU to be an integral part of this recording process.
This also gives us the chance to REWARD YOU with all sorts of exclusives: come to the studio and record with us, private shows, merchandise, even a guitar giveaway, and a whole lot more.
We thought long and hard about crowdfunding and decided it was the best approach for us. It’s a process in which supporters can see exactly where their money is going and can actively be a part of our creative process in a fun and engaging way. In essence, YOU will be our record label. NO middlemen, NO B.S., and NO corners cut. This is honest music being supported by YOU - our supporters, family, and friends.
Help us reach this milestone in our career, usher in a new era for our band, and be a part of our first ever LP.
YOU can be our record label.
Together we can create this album - here’s to YOU and conquering 2015 together!

Our single, “Fake This”, was honored as Homegrown Hits’ New Year’s song for 2015. They had some great things to say: “…The Upset Victory with their smart, powerful rock piece, “Fake This”…”
Thank you to korgusa & presonus for the kickass new studio gear too - excited to write w/ our new toys!
Be sure to listen to the official podcast as well featuring legendary producer/song-writer James Michael (Mötley Crüe, Scorpions, Jack’s Mannequin) as they analyze and weigh in on our track. Always rewarding and humbling to get kind words and props from a great musician such as James.

Travel/TUV Update: Three weeks from today, we’ll be in the midst of phase two for release #8. We will be writing/collaborating on almost 70+ ideas with the great team at Starlight Studios. This journey is only the beginning and as always we’re excited to continue down this path with YOU. Weekly, for almost a year now, we’ve been working tirelessly on new material; conducting countless hours behind-the-scenes and focusing our efforts on honing our craft as song-writers. It’s been hard work, but well worth it. As a result, we even took a small hiatus from live shows, shy of Bunbury Festival and the CEA Awards. Thank you for being patient and we can’t wait to share new material with you all! We believe this is our best material to date. Stay tuned for updates along the way…
Taken from a recent writing session. Frankie playin’ some mandolin. And, it’s w/ great excitement that we announce our return to Orlando this Fall to begin the next step towards our eighth studio release. We’re in good hands w/ Starlight Studios and we promise this release will be worth the wait - more updates this Fall!
To commemorate writing the follow up to ‘Wall Street’ here’s a brand new promotional photo!
We can’t wait for you to hear the new music we’ve been working on. This will be some of the most ambitious music we’ve written to date and will usher in a new chapter for the band. Thank you to everyone who has supported us - here’s to you!
