By Brian Leak Chris Conley has been in the music scene since he was roughly 14 years old. As of now he fronts Saves The Day with a revolving cast of characters, while also contributing to other projects and raising a family. Chris has been a resident of Synthesis‘ own Chico, CA for the better [...]
A while back Video Matt and I did a EPK for Vagrant Records, who has an amazing line-up at the moment. They sent us to a rural college town, where none other than Saves The Day‘s Chris Conley had recently put the finishing touches on his latest work, Two Tongues, with Say Anything‘s Max Bemis [...]
The countdown to the Two Tongues record is counting down pretty fast now, and I’m pretty excited about seeing how people react to their debut. I’m pretty sure that this disk is going to be hit or miss with a lot of the Say Anything and Saves The Day fans, but for what it’s worth [...]

I was lurking at Hawthorne Heights Myspace page today and I noticed that the big promo pic at the top was shot right here in good ol’ Chico, in Upper Bidwell Park, known around here as simply Upper Park. It seems like the last year or so Upper Park has been in more many emo [...]
Former Get Up Kids frontman Matt Pryor and Saves the Day frontman Chris Conley (pictured) are stepping out for a couple weeks worth of solo touring. If this tour isn’t called the “Party Like It’s 1999 Tour” someone at Vagrant is BLOWING IT! Here’s the press release: Matt Pryor (ex. The Get Up Kids, The [...]
“Crawl,” the first track from Two Tongues, featuring members of Saves the Day and Say Anything (including both Max Bemis and Chris Conley) can be heard on the band’s Myspace here. SPOILER ALERT: the songs is fucking BADASSSSSS!
So it’s Friday night, and instead of being out doing what twentysomething dudes are supposed to be doing, my friends and I are huddled around a shitty Sony boombox in the Synthesis office listening to the new Saves the Day record, Under the Boards.
