DNBL / APOSTILLE

A quick note. The next Apostille release is available to pre-order from Clan Destine records. It is a split release with my friend DNBL, who also plays in Pheromoans and Bomber Jackets. I recommend pre-ordering as it is limited to 50 only.

PRE ORDER HERE.

The Great Need. February Makes A Bridge.

The next Apostille release, a split on Clan Destine is being prepared. Here is a taster from my side.

There are two Apostille shows planned for February.

February 14 I play Power Lunches with Mushy from Rome

and *Y* from Barcelona. This show is a co-promotion with Night School and Static Shock Records.

Night School is also collaborating with Upset The Rhythm for February Makes A Bridge

The line up is incredible and a great snapshot of DIY music from London at this moment in time, filtered through the two labels' prisms. The show will take place at a new mock-Elizabethan theatre in Hackney Wick. Pre-book your tickets here. More news to follow in the coming weeks but in the meantime here is a video for WRONG.

Tour. Reputation. Debut vinyl release.

A lot of news to cover. COMFORTABLE ON A TIGHTROPE will be issuing the debut 7". "Wrong / The Road To War" features a remix of one of the first Apostille tracks and the latest recorded work. The 7" will feature a screenprinted sleeve, stamped labels and a download code.
You can pre-order it at the Night School distro site. To celebrate the tour and to see old friends there will be a short Apostille tour. The dates are below.

I hope you can make it to one of the shows. Some new songs that will be played out:

 

 

November 1st. Power Lunches with Paco Sala, Joanne Robertson, Martin Creed

Next show is with Paco Sala, Joanne Robertson, Martin Creed and DJs Roxanne Clifford and Cara Tolmie. Will be free and fun.

Green Flowers. Quintron.

Autumnal good times. This Thursday at Birthdays I'm playing a show with long-time favourite Quintron and Miss Pussycat and fellow traveller Ela Orleans. The show is courtesy of the good people at Upset The Rhythm. Get an advance ticket here. Further news about an Apostille UK tour and debut vinyl release will follow.

See Everyone. Terror Bird show.

One of my favourite artists this century is Terror Bird, ostensibly the recording moniker of Nikki Never. I booked a tour for Terror Bird last year which re-defined the idea of 'shoe-string budget,' producing many laughs on the way. Terror Bird's first release in the UK was 'Outside' which I was fortunate enough to release in February of last year. So it's with a lot of pride and excitement to announce that I'm hosting her only 2012 UK show at the Waiting Room (formerly the Drop) in Stoke Newington, London. Also playing will be Bomber Jackets who haven't played a show since the release of their recent EP on Night School 'Centurion Travel' EP. For purely selfish reasons Apostille completes the bill. The show takes place on September 4th. 8pm.

In the meantime. See Everyone.
