TUB releases their sophomore studio EP, "Rinse and Repeat" to all platforms on April 19th, 2020. The EP was recorded at UNC Asheville by Kevin Thomas, and mixed and mastered by Anthony Thogmartin (Papadosio, EarthCry).
"Rinse and Repeat" was recorded in one single afternoon studio session. It is a raw and potent snapshot into the musical world of TUB. It begins with the four tracks from the afternoon studio session and ends with a segment of improvisation captured during a live set that took place later that evening. Treading between danceable funk grooves, chaotic jazz fusion passages, and delicate soulful melodies, the band serves up a varied palate of sounds with the primary intention of unfiltered creative expression.
Musicologist Bill Kopp (Musoscribe), described the group, writing "TUB pairs technical brilliance with a focus on creating something that lies well within the domain of tuneful and accessible music."

The band is made up of Daniel Combs (keys) who played for Jahman Brahman from 2017-2018, Dennis Brumback (guitar) who plays for Dirty Logic, Asheville's premiere 11 piece Steely Dan tribute band (featuring members of Empire Strikes Brass), David Murray (bass) who plays for up and coming indie band Self-Help and math rock group Lowercase Numbers, and Marcus Clonts (drums) who also plays in Lowercase Numbers and has been involved in numerous projects all over the Western North Carolina region.
