After spending their entire Summer on the Vans Warped Tour, The Phillips brothers - Brandon, Zach, Adam - and their best friend Keenan, otherwise known as The Architects are packing their bags again for another cross country trek in support of their fourth album "The Hard Way" (Skeleton Crew). This time, the boys will be touring with Flogging Molly and Frank Turner.
Produced, mixed, and engineered by KC's own Aaron Conner (Cher, 2Pac, Notorious B.I.G.), "The Hard Way" is drawn from the deep lyrical pools of songsmiths like Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings and Tom Petty, while the roaring, crashing sonic inspiration comes from the likes of The Clash, AC/DC, The Replacements and The Who. "We are still our father's sons with respect to our heroes," says singer/songwriter and eldest brother Brandon describing the evolution of The Architects sound and the creation of "The Hard Way."
