I just made 90 percent of our songs available to be downloaded for free. The one's that aren't, are in the process of being rerecorded (or are going to be remixed), and will be available for free download soon! If you are in Los Angeles on August 24th we're competing in Guitar Center's battle of the bands at the 705 club. If you are interested shoot me an email at troubleinthewind@gmail.com and I’ll get you all the details. Lastly, if you haven't already, check out my solo stuff at http://www.thesixtyone.com/#/Ryanstavern/ -Ryan

THE HOST will be uploading a new song to THE61 on May 8th from their new EP 'TRANSMIT', due for release on May 17th.

Cactus needs your help! We’re a long ways from level 13, and could use a little nudge to get us there. If you can’t help us out, don’t worry about it, we still appreciate all of the support you’ve given us! We have been saving our song called “golden”, which is one of the best songs we have! It’s actually the only song that we’ve tracked in the studio, so the quality is much better. I put up the only three songs that we have that haven’t hit the home page, on our main page. Lastly, if you want a couple of tracks (or a couple more) to own for free, send me an email at cactusbobband@gmail.com with the track names, and I’ll upload them to you! Thanks again for listening, and for all of the support! -Ryan

Thanks for the notes on play it soft and blackened oak! Actually those songs were written at least a year apart from each other. Although I think they were about the same girl. I don't really know though. I'm glad you liked them! The points from my listener account thank you for bumping caspian parade! I'm fox if you want to tune box me any tracks!-Ryan

Geeky fan boys that we are...we recently posted our version of the Sealab 2021 theme on our page. Check it out if you get the chance...

We have a new song up called "idiot poem". Since you're a listener I will email you up to 3 tracks for free if you would like! Just email me with your name (profile name if you would like too) and the name of the tracks you would like. My email is cactusbobband@gmail.com Thanks for listening! -Ryan

Thanks for the bumps! -Ryan

Hey we've been on this thing for about two weeks and are trying to get our sound out. Check us out, you might like us! -Ryan
