    Hey guys. thought I'd jump on here and make a new dedicated thread to share a project I've been working super hard on since last fall. We currently have 2 singles out with a 3rd dropping on Tues the 23rd as well as an album announce riiight around the corner. Lots of interesting lore here as I befriended a guy by the name of Michael Robbins. Initially I was hired to do some session work for him and was just so moved by his song writing I was like dawg I hafta be in this band wtf its so good. So we spent a month with Zack Odom and Kenneth Mount (both mike and ZK are like 30 mins from where I live just north of Atlanta - talk about some stars aligning type shit amiright?) and we now have 11 songs we are incredibly stoked on. Once finishing the record we have kinda been working backwards; cherry picking the homies we want to fill out the live band etc. All the while - we thought it best to go ahead and release some songs and the album coming hella soon etc. Curious what you guys would think. Ive been involved in several projects since removing myself from TDS that were dope, but ultimately fell flat due to lack of commitment, work ethic, alignment etc. I have chatted with some homies a lil bit in diff threads but like I said I wanted to make a new one n get a bigger conversation goin with ya'll as I'm incredibly excited about the project.

    everything is here:
    www.bestcase.band (streaming links, vinyl pre orders, Merch etc)

    I guess I'll get the ball rolling with - of the 2 singles so far - this song below was what made me fall in love with the whole vibe of the project and was a favorite amongst close homies. V proud of this and it feels like a return to form for me. Hope you guys dig. Look forward to chatting with ya'll :heart: LM
