The fine folks at Midwest Movement have released their 2008 Holiday Sampler as a free digital download from their site.  You can check out a new track from CITOC entitled “Signal Down” along with a bevy of other fine rock songs by fine rock bands.  The sampler is only available for download until 1/1/09, so get to it.

It’s a happy time here at Seconds Before HQ as we congratulate our guitarist Chris and his lovely wife Tracy on the birth of their daughter, Adrienne Charlotte Dales.  She’s not even 48 hours old yet and Chris reports that she’s already proven to be a fan of rock music, which means that she was born cool.  Plans to decorate her room with Iron Maiden “Eddie” posters may or may not materialize.

We’d like to wish everyone safe and happy holidays.  We’re laying low from live performances until the new year (and giving Chris a much-deserved break to ease into fatherhood).   We’ll be back at it in 2009.  Cheers!
