greetings sweet friends. hope your fall is going well. everybody picked out a pumpkin patch to go sit in and wait for the great pumpkin to rise up and reward your sincerity? of course you have. hey while you’re organizing your sweaters, perhaps i can tell you about what we’ve got going on this fall/winter. it’s a lot but it really breaks down into three big things.
1– we have a smattering of usa shows coming up THIS MONTH: philly, nyc, boston, and charleston. what’s extra exciting is that we’ve got some super talented friends joining us for these so we can rock out triumphantly as the 5-piece band we were born to be. on the northeast shows we’ll even be joined by owen biddle on bass, longtime bass player for the roots! does this mean kaler is going to bust out one of his infamous young mc performances? doubtful, but possible. other shaggy geniuses joel t. hamilton, jack berg, and ron wiltrout will be involved at various points as well. playing with great bands every night too. see the ‘tour’ section of our webzone for all the details.
2– we’re releasing a video. it involves amazing stop-motion puppetry and frankensteinian overtones. it was directed by our buddy chris march and will debut later this month. i’m going to call it now: best slow runner video of all time. horse-head character from the ‘long division’ video, you have been served.
3– new european tour WITH UK DATES! trembling with excitement over this. once again we travel to the majestic far edges of western civilization with lumberjack troubadour william fitzsimmons. 24 shows, 10 countries, the metric system… it’s on. please help us get the word out and coerce your international friends to come see us! see dates below.
also we’ll have new merch at all fall shows.
thank you for reading this and being our friends. it’s been a hell of a year. see you this fall (or sometime in 2012 if that works better for you).
