Who are these guys?

"Someone told me to check out this group since they place second in the JOHN LENNON SONGWRITER'S CONTEST for 1999. Awfully good for second place. Who are these guys?"

"This record is infectious! Lots of hooks and great lyrics. Ihad never heard of this band until their music was featured on DawsonsCreek . . . it's a cross between the Beatles, the Counting Crows, Matthew Sweet, Matchbox 20, Simon and Garfunkle and Live!"
Personal, edgy, accessible, wonderful!

"Combine wonderful harmonies, deeply personal lyrics, edgy yet accessible arrangements and powerful delivery and you have a CD that will remain in you player for months to come! I first heard them on Dawson's Creek and haven't stopped listening since. Check out "2 O'Clock", it gets to me every time."
Better Days renews my faith in today's musicians...

"This CD has got to be one of the best works of modern music to hit my stereo in a long, long while. In a time where barely anyone writes their own stuff anymore, Better Days have truly brought new hope and vitality to the music scene. These guys are fun, melodic and moving. "Sunday Morning" makes me want to skip to work, while "2 o'clock" always leads me to quiet moments of reflection... Finally, a CD that covers all the bases... you won't be skipping past any songs here! It is a perfect blend of Beatles, Toad the Wet Sprocket, Matchbox Twenty, and somewhere in the music I know I hear that little kid inside all of us..."
