"We talked to a bunch of indie labels, but when it came down to it, starting our own business seemed like the right thing to do because we've always been a self-sufficient band", Mercedes said. "We've never had help paying for tours, an we do all of our own merch, and we have our own clothing line [Poisoned Black].
Mercedes explained, "After talking to several indie labels, we realized that starting our own business was the right choice because we've always been self-sufficient musicians. We never needed help with tour expenses or merchandise production; instead, we manage everything ourselves and have a clothing line called Poisoned Black."
