We recently chatted with That's Why We Musyc. We talked about our evolving sound, pursuing your passion, Backstreet Boys, our musical influences, the perks of self-management, and much more. This interview was done over Google Hangouts, it was super casual and fun. Check out our hour-and-a-half long conversation.
That's Why We Musyc also reviewed Sparks of Light. They liken us to Walk The Moon and Ed Sheeran, saying we "bring together multiple genres to create something new. And new doesn’t seem to come around all that often anymore." Check out their review here.
We won 1st place at the battle of the bands at The Auld Shebeen two weeks ago in support of Music Rocks Autism and Cancer Can Rock! We met some great musicians and people, all while supporting a cause that's very near and dear. The audience's reception to our music was overwhelming. Thank you to all there who greeted us and our music with such love! It makes it all worth it. And to hear that musicians there look up to us, it's very humbling.

and people are raving about Sparks of Light! Here's a few of what critics are saying about us. Click on the links to read what else they had to say!
Stencil Magazine - "It is always amazing finding such original music, and with Skyline Hotel, I think there's a big future in store. Whether it's electronica, acoustic, or as proved with the last song blasting out a guitar solo, they can do it. The future is bright for these two brothers."
9:30 Club - "Skyline Hotel have what many technically proficient musicians can overlook: serious pop sensibilities. Their studio recordings are meticulously arranged, all ready for airplay."
The Rival at GW - "Skyline Hotel truly is capturing the sound of Gen-Y young love, and deserve to receive full credit as ambassadors to the DMV creative scene."
Hometown Sounds - "lots of smooth licks, stylish guitar playing...like Wilco Summerteeth pop era."
DC Rock Live - "If you prefer a smarter brand of pop music that is smooth at heart, but filled with rock energy, then Skyline Hotel should be on your itinerary."

I can't even begin to describe the labor of love that went into making this record. Countless, countless hours and sleepless nights were devoted to this for over a year, meticulously crafting and obsessing over every nuance, but I wouldn't change a thing. We poured every last bit of our emotions into this, hope it connects with you in some way.

What an incredible night our EP Release Party was. It took me about 2 days to come off of the life/adrenaline high I had from this show. I heard many things said after the show, all of which were "phenomenal," "awesome," or some variation of that. Huge thank you to EVERYONE who came out to celebrate with us, Broke Royals , and Lookout Gang -- you all helped make this a success. We had over 100 people at the show!! What a sight it was to pack DC9. We all at Skyline Hotel are so grateful for everyone's support on this EP release, thank you.
Check out the photos from the night.
