If you like grunge that sounds like it’s straight out of the 90s, or sad acoustic music, then you need to check out Altered State!
It was so much fun being a part of the process of bringing these songs to life. Make sure to follow them on Spotify so you don’t miss any future releases.

Honored to be a part of this EP that Search Party is putting out this summer. They’ve put a ton of work into the material and it shows. The band and I can’t wait for people to lose their minds over it!

When HFM originally started I had met Jake in college. We talked about our shared love for music over a Dance Gavin Dance shirt I wore.

Covid had happened & I reached out to Jake asking him if he’d wanna be the vocalist of a band I’m putting together. From June 2020 onward we were Hot Fudge Mondaes.

With life, things changed. We’ve had member changes, personal growth, and artistic changes.

Despite this being the most cohesive lineup I’ve ever played with in this project. This is a completely different band, and absolutely for the better.

All that being said, an ep will be released this summer.

Welcome to our search party.
