Canadian Tour / Bedford Falls Tour - Aug 16th, 2010

We’re going to be doing a mini Canadian tour this week. Dates are finally up. Sorry about the delay, we weren’t sure if the tour was going to happen.
Also in October we’re bringing Bedford Falls over from Wales to tour down to Fest and back. Hopefully we’ll be seeing a lot of your smiling faces down in Florida (and our way down and back).
In other news our split 7” with Cheap Girls is officially out of print.

Sinker LP and Bedford Falls split 7" Out now! - Mar 24th, 2010

We just got in the Sinker LPs and the Bedford Falls Split 7”. They are up on our merch page and you can order them now. We’ve also started to ship out the copies of the Sinker LP to those who pledged to our Kickstarter page. We can’t thank you enough. The Bedford Falls split is the first release on our own record label, Sheets of Tens. We’re really excited to have a 7” with Bedford Falls, and even more excited to be going on a UK tour with them starting next week. You can check out the dates on the shows page.

Free Sampler. - Jan 23rd, 2010

Help us put "Sinker" out on LP! - Jan 19th, 2010

We just launched a Kickstarter.com page to help raise money to put out our first full length, Sinker, on LP. Kickstarter.com is a great website that allows musicians, artists or anyone who have an idea for a project, but little capital to get it started. Basically people pledge a donation towards your project, and in return they get something back. For our project the lower level donations are pretty much just pre-orders. The more people pledge, the more they get in return. If someone pledges us $50 we will screen print them any one color shirt of their choice/design. If someone pledges $75 they will get a test press of the LP (this is limited to 5 people). If anyone has the money to pledge $100, Tony will write and record a song specifically for/about them. There are also other pledge levels, so check out our page to see what they are.
