Led by first single "Can't Get Enough" - which AllThingsGo declared "powerful and polished" in their exclusive premiere last month - the EP has built early anticipation around the web, including a "Daily Discovery" pick from American Songwriter, "Artist To Watch" feature from Kings Of A&R and "New Music Discovery" feature at Daily Unsigned.

"Can't Get Enough" has also started to surface at radio, including a nod from influential DJ Nic Harcourt on his weekly syndicated show Connections, along with early airplay from Radio 104.5/Philadelphia, Lightning 100/Nashville and Channel 93.3/Denver.

Dinner And A Suit - singer Jonathan Capeci, guitarist Joey Beretta, bassist Anthony Genca and drummer Drew Scheuer - have been gobbling up this kind of ongoing critical praise since the 2012 release of their debut LP Since Our Departure. Highlights like "Latest Obsession" from MTV, "Rising Tide" from Billboard and "Discovery of the Week" from Last.FM have all underlined the band's swelling presence.

So in the midst of this ongoing momentum, STAY was written on the road.

"The songs are about being human and finding out who you are; wandering," explains Capeci. "We wanted to be sure that we were being exposed and honest."

Produced by Paul Moak (Lovedrug, The Weeks) at The Smoakstack in Nashville, TN, the EP was recorded live to tape.

"It was important for us to capture the vibe of our band on this EP," Capeci continues.

And so the resulting work isn't a new direction for the band, but rather, an illumination of where they're going while staying true to where they've been.
