Hey dude, thanks! The project with my friend is most likely going to be a skate punk type thing, in the vein of The Offspring(Americana-era) and Pennywise, maybe some Bad Religion and poppy Green Day influence as well. We also plan on at times breaking away from that entirely and doing something completely out-of-the-blue like a jazz/hip hop beat or something as an interlude. More than likely we'll be heavily satirical lyrically, discussing social and political issues from a sarcastic, humorous viewpoint.
It's also going to have a very lo-fi sound, as we don't have a recording budget at all and nowhere to record except for our apartment. I'm hoping we'll have some time to throw together a demo soon, I'm pretty excited about it.

Is Dreams From Gin splitting up, or is this a side project?

Good question! Dreams from Gin is currently on a Hiatus, which means we are not playing shows or recording music anytime in the near future.
Right now playing in the Spin Wires is my main priority. We are actually getting some good traction with Radio airplay and are chatting with some indie record labels so I'm hopeful something will pan out.
We've been playing a lot of shows but I'd really like to release this EP and see how it does!
Let me know how the band project with your buddy goes, I'll check it out when you guys get something together!
Thanks!
