A taste of our history

We are Portable Reinforcements - a band started as a form of self-expression - We both like to write, so as a way to say what we want to say in a world that doesn't always allow.

Our name came from our first practice session - We were strumming our guitars, Caitlin on her electric, me on my acoustic, trying to think of a name that best captured who we were. There on her floor was a package of Portable Reinforcements (you know those little sticky circles that help papers not tear out of your binder).

Portable because we're not bound to just one place - we still have that sense of idealism about us - we're not afraid to go where we need to go and do what is in our hearts.
Reinforcements because we have a natural tendency towards supporting others - towards helping people and reinforcing their positive outlooks - helping them to realize what they have within their selves.

So that's our name and what it means to us.
