Rushmores formed in the fall of 2003. During that time we have: recorded two EPs (Giggidagiggida Giggida! and Hello Dummies); played around chicago and the Midwest (WI,IN, OH); have embarked on two winter tours to the East Coast; and spent the last 2 summers touring everywhere from the East Coast, Southern States, the Midwest and the Pacfic Northwest.
In August of 2005 we lost our lead guitarist Joe Boomer for school related purposes.
In the winter of 2005 the Rushmores decided to call it quits.
