Come On In.... The Water's Fine


We are excited to reveal the name our debut album....Come On In...The Water's Fine!

The final track list is still a few more weeks from being confirmed, will keep you updated!

Come On In...The Water’s Fine! Is going to be available from iTunes and there will only be a few limited addition hard copies made so you’ll have to message/email us if you want to buy one!

We are also filming a making of video, and clips of that will start to leak out as soon as the producer (Paul) is happy with the final cut!

Here is a sneak peak at the artwork...

Half term report

The report book would look good for us at the moment, probably around the half way point through the album now.  New song has guitar and drums recorded just needs one take tony to put down the bass and it won't be far off.  Still lots to finish and start though... Can't wait for everyone to hear it and we hope it's worth the wait!!!

Shabby Road Sessions

Afternoon Purples

We have a bit of break now before the next gig which is in October at the Actress & Bishop in Birmingham, so we can concentrate on recording at Shabby Road.
We are aiming to finish a full length independent album ready for the New Year and to be available at our gig at the Robin and onward.  We are also in the process of recording a video so that might get leaked before the album is due just depends if we can keep Neil under control.  There will hopefully be some extra merch and freebies on the way as well, it's all early stages yet but keep checking Facebook/Twitter for updates.

Thank you again to everyone who is downloading the BandApp we are now up to 550 downloads, and to everyone liking the Facebook page it looks a more respectable total now!

All in all moving in the right direction but only thanks to everyone who supports us!

Thank you

Alex, Jon, Paul, Matt & Neil

Shabby Road Sessions

Another good session at shabby road studios last night ended with the vocals down on Did I Ever Lose, and after a few hours of clipping, moving and editing the drums are down too! All that’s left is to get Birmingham teapot orchestra in to record the orchestral parts.

More Guitars Please



The guitars and bass are now down on another new track last night Did I Ever Lose, it’s a little different to the other recordings! One take Tony was on for with the return of the Ibanez although it wasn't technically one take! The guitars went down pretty quick apart from certain someone not being able to play 3 notes, and a poor Tom Morello impression!

Neil stepped up to the daddy Mac and crashed some drums down on another new track Superman!

Plenty of writing going on at the moment so will see how many we can get in the set for May.


Tuesday 23 April 2013

More New Tracks!!

Drums went down last night for 2 more new songs!! We are not far from an albums worth of tunes now!
Also rehearsing even more new tracks.... its endless writing, hopefully a video up later of rehearsals!
