  • LTTE is Seeking a New Guitarist- Please Read

    Hello Everybody,

    As many of you know we parted ways with our guitarist Ricky late last year and our good friend Mitch Bedzyk (Oceans and Vessels) has been amazing by filling in for us on our last couple tours. However it is certainly time to officially put out there that we are searching for a new guitar player. We have a lot of very big things happening with LTTE right now and in the near future. Our requirements for the position are pretty similar to most bands you see posting these sort of things but I have listed some below we're looking for in a guitar player.

    1.) LTTE is a christian band and we would love to have a brother in Christ playing with us. However if you're not a christian, but are a respectable person who can understand and appreciate how we operate and do things, then definitely talk to us.

    2.) Must be able and willing to tour full time, 5-7 months a year.

    3.) Experience playing in other bands. This is not an absolute requirement, but we would like to see video footage of your other bands so we can see how you look on stage, (because stage presence is quite important!) and also hear some music you have written.

    4.) We're based out of Long Island, NY so we would like to have someone who was within 8 hours driving distance, who would be willing and able to come practice from time to time. This again, is not an absolute requirement but it would definitely make things easier for both you and us.

    5.) Must be willing and able to contribute financially, therefore have an income when home from tour. Van payments, insurance, merch, etc are not free so we would need you to contribute like the rest of us from time to time. (this of course, would be after we have done some tours with you, and decided to ask you to join the LTTE family full time)

    So if you are interested or have any questions shoot us an email at LTTE777@gmail.com. There are big things in the works that we can't mention here but if you're looking to play in a serious band with very exciting things happening, we'd love to talk! God bless and thanks for reading.

  • 2011 UPDATE!!! NEW SONG, NEW LINE UP, NEW PHOTOS!!! PLEASE READ!!

    Hello everybody. It's been a while since we've updated everyone on what is going on with Letter To The Exiles. A lot has been going on recently, some good, some unfortunate, but we're pushing on and are very excited about the future. First off, as many people who have seen us recently, we have gone through some member changes as bands tend to do. Our original singer Erich Barto left the band back in May, as he felt it was time to start focusing on other aspects of life which is something all of us support and we will love him until we die. With that said our great friend Chris King stepped up and came on tour with us all summer and has been a wonderful addition to LTTE. He will be writing lyrics and singing with us on our new record which we're currently writing, and you can check out a new song right now on our myspace featuring Chris on vocals (leave us a comment telling us what you think). We have also recently parted ways with our guitarist Ricky, and will be continuing on as a 4-piece until we find a suitable replacement. This was part of the reason we had to drop off our November tour which was a bummer for us all but we will be back on the road touring this winter, and as always playing shows locally and around the northeast.

    We are very excited about the future and what it holds for the band and things are certainly coming together. The new material we've been writing is in our opinion, our best stuff yet. We are very excited about these new songs and can't wait to get out on the road and play them for all of you. So go check out the new song we posted with our new singer Chris and let us know what you think. Thanks for sticking with us we look forward to seeing you guys soon! God bless

  • LTTE DECEMBER UPDATE

    Hey everyone! 

    Just wanted to give you guys a quick update on what's going on in the life of LTTE. We recently just finished writing a BRAND NEW SONG which we are extremely excited about. It is some of our best stuff yet and we can't wait for you all to hear it! We're going into the studio to start tracking drums this Wednesday, Dec 8th at Sacred Sound Studios with our good friend Mike Austin. We've worked with Mike before on our past demos and he always does an incredible job. Right now we are planning to launch this new song, new promo pics, new myspace layout and some new news all on January 1st, 2011. It will soon be a new year, and LTTE plans to start it off with a bang! So spread the word and tell all your friends! Thanks you to everyone and anyone who has ever supported us and continues to support us. We love you guys! Take care and God bless.

  • November Tour - Please Read

    Hello everybody,

    It is with great regret that due to current circumstances and recent events that have occurred that we, Letter To The Exiles, have to drop off from the November "They Drew First Blood Tour". We are sorry to have to make this decision, as it was made with much thought, prayer, and consideration, as well as exhausting all of our resources we have to try avoiding this decision. We have never had to drop off of a tour and it leaves a bad taste in our mouths but we know it is something we have to do.

    With that in mind, we are going to be re-grouping as a band, writing a new record, and will be back out on the road as soon as we can. We would like to encourage you all to go out and support As Hell Retreats and Gideon on this tour, as they are awesome bands. Once again we apologize for this inconvenience and look forward to seeing you all in the future and thanks for sticking with us. Keep checking back for more details about the future of LTTE, as were excited to see what the Lord has in store for this band. God bless you all.

    Sincerely,
    Letter To The Exiles
