Screaming testimonials against the hypocrisy of ourselves, the energetic, near-danceable indie tunes they produce stride hand-in-hand with an underlying ...

Band Name:	Daniel Erickson & Networth


Song Title:	Figurine


Band Description:	Daniel Erickson, with the aid of Networth—yes one word, released their first LP Negative Eyes in December of 2012. Since then it has been like a hunt for the illusive jackalope to see these guys perform live, mainly because they immediately went back into the studio to work on their up and coming 2nd LP. If you enjoy rocks, become a geologist, if you enjoy music, go out searching for these four jackalopes.
