Ben & Piers have settled in nicely and we're loving the 4-piece mode. The last few shows have been really exciting & we're starting to stretch ourselves a little more.
We're looking to hit the studio later this month to record a mix of new material and a couple of covers for an EP to come out later this year. Not sure about the direction, but I can safely assume louder & more intense. We've been listening to a lot of stuff like Alcest & Jesu, so mix that in with what we're doing now and you'll get an idea.
Show-wise we've got 2 this month. July 9 we play at the Laughing Outlaw Winter Ball at Petersham Bowling Club. It's an all-day/all-night event with 12 superb artists covering all the musical genre bases. PBC is a local venue that needs our support. They don't have poker machines, so rely on punters doing what punters used to do before these rotten machines came along, and drinking a few beers, eating a good meal & watching some live music.
July 16 is a headlining show at the Sly Fox in Enmore with Palaces, Boatfriends, Scissor Lock and Peter Hollo (Fourplay/FBi/Raven) playing some eclectic tracks in between and afterwards for your listening pleasure. If it all goes well we'll be looking to set up a dedicated monthly night to promoting experimental rock/electronica through live music & guest DJs.
