Halfway to Hopkins is a sonic blast from start to finish, bringing swampy southern accents to fresh, contemporary tunes. The title refers to a small community outside Columbia where the band lived for several years after graduating from the nearby University of South Carolina.
“That house, which was halfway between Columbia and Hopkins on the southeast side of town, was where we really began to come together,” Says Drohan. “We knew then we wanted to become more than just another bar band.”

The result is an album that tackles the identity crisis of the average twenty-something on multiple levels in songs such as “Black Eye Sunrise,” which on the surface may be about a buzz gone wrong but also speaks to a life in transition. Slow-building dynamics, anthemic organ and ringing guitars support Taylor Nicholson's impassioned vocals; when he sings “Please don't forget me when I'm gone” there's little chance of the hook, or the band, leaving the listener's mind any time soon.

HELLO AND WELCOME to -- The Optometrist's Office w/ Okel Mark Thomas

     I started writing The Optometrist's Office after my freshman year of college, during the darkest time of my life. It was the first time I had zero love, unconditional or romantic, and the harsh reality of being alone in the world was starting to latch onto my body and mind, eating away at my vitality. So where did I turn? -- To hip-hop music. At this point, you know I recognize hip hop as medicine for the mind, and in a way, this tape is the second installment of M E D I C I N E, (https://soundcloud.com/okel/sets/m-e-d-i-c-i-n-e), but I chose to name it The Optometrist's Office because, to put it bluntly, I want to change the way YOU see shit, while M E D I C I N E was entirely focused on my personal escapism.

With M E D I C I N E, I chose to ignore my problems and run away to a fantasy land, recharging my exuberance in that manner, but after releasing it, I eventually realized that constantly surrounding yourself with the things that make you most comfortable is the equivalent of locking yourself away in a cage, and it always nice for a while, but you gotta break out and fly.

So, this mixtape to me, is like the final stages of a caterpillar's chrysalis and the beginning of its long flight home. I was in such a dark place for over two years, but after dozens of surreal experiences, good and bad, I've realized the only way to truly get something done is to attack it head on. That's when I started writing with the grit that I feel this project is centered around. Don't be scared of your thoughts, embrace them when they're positive and powerful, and analyze them when they're negative and feeble. Once you learn to see yourself from a 3rd person perspective you can learn a lot. You can become fully self aware, and your body and mind will tell you what it needs to function properly, and all my body needs anymore is some doses of reality and a little love. 

Please Enjoy! I love you forreal <3

Not much to say, besides Mac was one of a kind. 
First time I heard this song was junior year of high school. 
Recorded the drums live - I'm happy with how it turned out.

Take care of yourself and the world around you.
