Keep an eye on our bandcamp page tomorrow. We have an old promise to keep…

More soon!

I think everyone who was there experienced it as a modern day Woodstock: fantastic people, great music, lots of heavy weather but also a great deal of sunshine, good, nice, warm atmosphere… All the hippy stuff your (grand)parents talked about! Together with three other bands, we were asked to create a soundtrack for the festival, which resulted in a cool video. Watch our part below:

Now we’ve made a special recording of this song and it’s yours if you want to. Enjoy it, and let us know what you think of it! And hopefully we’ll see you at ITGWO2010. Because whether we’re asked to play or not, we’re going!

Superbye,

P.S.
One more thing, please help us for next month’s single!

This week we’re very, very, very active in our hometown Groningen. Yesterday we played a nice gig at the Unconvention afterparty with our friends The Black Atlantic, Rue Royale, Sexton Creeps, We Swim You Jump and Lars Ludvig Löfgren. It was also the first gig of the week we gave away our album, Chekhov Guns, for a variable price. In other words, we are asking you to:

Listen to our baby. If you like it, download it for any price you think it deserves.

click here to listen / download Chekhov Guns

Simple as that. We are making our music to be heard and enjoyed, so try it! If you like it or don’t, we’d like to know! We’re on Hyves, Twitter, Facebook and all the cool places, give us a shout!

Anyways, if you’re going to EuroSonic or Noorderslag we hope to see you. If you can’t, we hope you enjoy our music anyways

We won’t mind if you don’t feel like paying, then all we ask is your e-mail address. We promise we won’t use your e-mailaddress for anything more than to send you a monthly newsletter with a free, downloadable single!

Free Club AT single every month

Every month we will send you a nice newsletter with loads of info, but most of all:

- A free single, ready to download! Custom made, recorded, mixed etc. for you!

What a year, what a year. MJ died, the climate wasn’t saved , FC Groningen sucked bigtime and: we released our third album Chekhov Guns! That last thing didn’t come as a surprise for us, we had been working on it and fighting about it for over two years… So to finally be able to celebrate this release with you guys was really something special. To thank you for your support we recorded a christmas song that you guys chose yourself (remember?), and because we’re so enthousiastic about it we also recorded a premium, professional and very expensive video. Check this out:

Please take a look here to download the song for nothing. You heard me, it’s FREE! Hurray.

Enjoy Christmas and we wish you a great 2010, may all your wishes come true and may FC Groningen beat Heerenveen.

Cheers,

This pink house of ours is special because it is an actual clubhouse and we’re asking you to become a member. Off course we have rules for that – like burping A-U-D-I-O-T-R-A-N-S-P-A-R-E-N-T backwards – which you can find here.

The idea is that if you become a member (see Club AT above, right, see it? Click it!) we’ll keep you posted on what we’re up to and give you special and free stuff. We promise you a special song every month that you can download for free. And you also get a vote on what you would like us to record. For example; November this year you can download the song really white smile from our album which will be out November 23^rd. December will be the first chance to vote; which Christmas song would you like to get as a present this year?

So if you’re not a member yet; get in soon! It’s cold outside and we’re making hot chocolate with rum and whipped cream! AND we’re giving away free cd’s /vinyl/ and free tickets for the release party in Stadsschouwburg Groningen!
