About this project
This is a fundraiser for the release of our debut LP entitled 'Wide Awake'
We're all finished recording! Demos are currently streaming on our bandcamp page, and now we would love to have it pressed on vinyl. Once we get the masters in, we'll send them off to the pressing company, and if all goes according to plan, the LP will be released late May or early June. Right in time for summer touring.
United Record Pressing will do the actually LP pressing for us, and Imprint Printing will print the jackets.
This has been a dream of ours for a long time now. Pledge what you can, we really appreciate it!

Arches began as a recording project between college roommates Julien Rossow - Greenberg and Tom Herman Jr. After graduating in the Spring of 2010 they decided to move to Philadelphia where they would be close to bandmates Cristian Adams (bass) and Kevin Kearney (drums).
Since the move to Philly, Arches has been writing and recording. The result is their debut LP "Wide Awake"
