An official website EXCLUSIVE. Well, EXCLUSIVE to anyone who didn’t see on Facebook or wasn’t checking YouTube accounts last night. The song once and forever known as ‘Bojangles’ is now known as ‘Future Tides’. I was as upset as anyone to discover that my #1 choice of ‘Moonlight Sinatra’ was already taken by Ol’ Blue Eyes himself.
We’re pretty much playing into those Los Campesinos! comparisons now. A special thanks to Jenna Jameson and the casts of Naughty Vacation 2 and Emmanuelle for providing additional visuals; and Mr Myxxx for recording. SG made a delicious chick pea curry on the day to keep our energy up.
And thanks to everyone who saw us at The Naturals single launch and the Simple Things Festival. We had a blast at both of them. There seems to be a gradual curve when practicing/playing shows where you go from making sure you simply play the songs correctly to being comfortable enough to start thinking about performance more and I feel like we’ve hit the latter stage - now I’m anxious to play more shows, it makes sense that we’re not playing for another couple of weeks.
Game 3 of our indie rock El Clásico takes place later this month, with the scoreline at 1-1. The Naturals were absolutely incredible last time around. We’ve been fortunate to see them play and grow over the past couple of years and that show was on another level entirely so the onus is on us to go one better now.
And at the start of next month, we’re playing with Sparrow And The Workshop. I saw them play at the highest pub in Britain a few years ago when I had the best time of my life watching British Sea Power. Then, I thought they were like Cat Power and the singer was cute and couldn’t tune her guitar but now they sound professional and on point. Their new song is pretty fun.
We recorded another video on the same day as the one at the top, but that is not being pushed right now. It is viewable somewhere on the Internet though. We’ve also named nearly all of our remaining songs so, one day, you’ll be able to request yr favourite by title.
Until then,
