“I’m Isaac with Golden Groves. We’re a local Kansas City band that has been around for about 2 years. We have recorded 2 EP’s. The first EP was more of a highlight of the things that we thought we could do genre wise. The second EP is more of “this is what we love to have fun with each other.” We are a bunch of dads.

“I’m out here in the sunflower fields. They just started blooming about 3 days ago. About the 27th they started blooming. Full bloom will be in another couple of days. My wife stated they would bloom on the 31st two months ago and she wasn’t too far off. I was a few days off. We are getting a few people out right now.
