We're glimmer... like a little bit of hope shining in the dark. A faint or distant light. The smallness is important. And the darkness around it is important… not Glitter or Razzle Dazzle or even Sparkle…just a little glimmer (of life?)… a tiny bit of showbiz, but small—like a puppet show lit by candles for close friends.
We are a folk-pop-a-roll band made up of theatre and music veterans — The Walkabouts, 1-Uppers, Sumac, Hedwig & The Angry Inch at the Moore Theatre, and much more. Our first album “Still Here” came out in January 2017 and we're set to finish recording our follow up album this Winter.
