Recorded Feb. 28 in Manhattan, the album of Things to Ruin is produced by Sh-K-Boom Records and features Nick Blaemire, Katrina Rose Dideriksen, Badia Farha, Sarah Glendening, Eric William Morris, Lance Rubin, Jason "SweetTooth" Williams and songwriter Iconis. The band includes Ian Kagey, Brent Stranathan and Mike Pettry, with musical supervision by Matt Hinkley.
The show is described as a "theatrical rock concert about human beings who are messy, emotional, drugged up, knocked down, inspired, electric and who don’t have nearly enough time to cause the kind of commotion they so desperately need to."
