Ten Grinches, plus two

Here is our first Christmas EP - we hope it's just your size.

Jess arranged and recorded it all tucked away in her basement bedroom, in the midst of and just underneath the bumping chaos made by a family of five, plus one yapping dog, who live upstairs.

And so it is with Christmas, who visits us in and as a happy mess of family, laughter, tears, and all of that process of both grinching and un-grinching our too small hearts, may they grow ever bigger.

Daytrotter Goodness

Our hearts are full of popcorn clouds as we write this.

Over the summer we traveled out to Rock Island, Illinois to record a session with Daytrotter. It was an incredible experience and we've been on the edge of our seats with excitement waiting for the tracks to be released on daytrotter.com.

Well, today we are proud to announce that our session is here! We're still hammering out the details of our full length album, but in the meantime you can head over to daytrotter.com and download these tracks! It's only $4 for a month of daytrotter membership which gives you access to download every session any band has ever recorded with them.

Cheers!

Dreams.

Hello hello!
Welcome to Eustace the Dragon dot blog dot awesome.

Feel free to set this site as your new homepage.

That we may greet you in the morning with singing and merry-making. 

That we may invite you to upcoming shows and shindigs. 

That we may tell you all our hopes and dreams. 
And maybe nightmares.

Anyone ever have a turning point in their nightmares, where suddenly everything impossible becomes possible? Scary things turn into cute things, broken doors turn into shields, and then all of these things turn into songs.

We are Eustace the Dragon - an ugly and honest brute. 

But honesty is the beginning of all beauty, and we promise to sing only what we find to be true in our changing.

Thanks for listening. And thanks for pushing us to finally record a full length album.

We will do that this year, and you're welcome to join us in it.

All our best,

Danny, Jess, and Amanda
