BACK TO THE CD BUSINESS...
Folk 'n' Glory is 11 tracks long. Having been done 1,2,3,4, stylee all together in a room through hot valves straight to our budget pc - and it's got a lo-fi charm all of its own. We went for that 60's/70's vibe with band in a room having fun feel and we thinks that's exactly what we've got. Folk 'n' Glory has quite a retro feel to the music and artwork, which we think you'll be pleased with, we are. Deffo folkier than Politics and on a par with fiddle-punkin' 'Propaganda' for that soundscape to the revolution Foxie is planning every day. Yay, that's getting closer too by the way...
We is on i-Tunes
Those of you who are missing our earlier albums will be pleased to hear they are now on Spotify, as well as being available to download from iTunes, Amazon MP3, Play, 7digital, and many other fine vendors of digital music.
Note: you can no longer get hold of our old albums either by purchase or free mp3 download. If you want to get your mitts on the old stuff you will sadly have to visit Spotify or i-Tunes etc.
If this pisses some of you off, we apologise for that but recording and producing stuff costs a lot of wedge and finally this year we have just broken 'even' after 16 years and we just cannot afford to give stuff away any more; especially as our own costs have rocketed over the last 12 months and we plan another release later this year/early next year.
If you cannot afford to buy anything due to unemployment or low wage... and love us loads... contact (me) Foxie and I will email you some mp3 stuff for free... provided that you are genuine and not a freeloader.
The forum
Or blogspot as it is now called. Ewan 'keeping it nice' Porter hyphen Stevens will be doing future blogs as he is the dude with the notebook, pen and GPS camera with 'cake' and 'puppy' settings.
Finally
We have a 'B' sides collection of tracks too that we plan to record later in the year with a couple of surprises thrown in for good measure. Keep an eye out for that! I want to call it 'Worcester Sauce' as it will be a recording in Worcester and its saucy, trust me you'll have to run with this idea...
Finally finally... As you may see, we don't have many gigs this year, so all the more important you say hello when we do play a gig. This is a rebuilding year for us, so the album and promo of it has to be a priority. We'll see where that takes us, and hopefully the new album will mean more gigs in the future... so fingers crossed.
We hope to see some of you, all of you, new friends, old friends, lost friends at a gig soon, when they eventually happen, so don't be strangers!
