This is for the long time fans out there who have followed the band from the beginning, and for new fans who otherwise would've never had a chance to hear where the band came from. It shed's light on the history of the group, how the DW sound was formed and the early struggles to make it out of the Chicago local scene.

Ditchwater will begin touring in early 2007 to support both "Going Forward Looking Back" (released in September of '06) and "Sacred Relics" before heading into the studio for a brand new album in the summer.

The new album to be recorded later in '07 will be the first to feature new vocalist Mike Loomis. Loomis (who hails from Madison, WI) replaces former singer Mike Meadows who quit the band back in September to pursue other musical interests.
