After dealing with several groups in Minneapolis, singer/songwriter/guitarist Wes Morden formed the center Says with guitarist/singer Ben Glaros in 2003. Effen Information released their debut EP, Great Portland Road, in 2004. Numerous lineup changes ultimately resulted in the music group coalescing like a quartet of Morden, Glaros, bass participant Peter Fleming, and drummer Craig Gallas, the quartet that produced the Middle Says’ debut full-length LP Content Fun Party, released nationally on January 27, 2009.
