Pre-order the new single 'Hilary'

Hey there! Thanks for stopping by. This is my first post on our sparkly new website, and it instantly goes top 5 posts of all time. Why? Because it's been about 2 years coming, and because it's brilliant. Finally our new single 'Hilary' is available for pre-order and has a proper release date of Monday 27th July. Let me tell you some more about it.

I wrote the A Side on a train ride home from my last gig with the band Tellison, last October. I knew when I first played it to Sebastien it was gonna be a rocker. The B Side is a re-recording of the track 'Get A Drummer'. You've probably already heard a couple of versions of this song, both not quite doing it. Well this time it does do it, I can assure you. We're releasing this single on our own T-shirt Records label and have spent the past few weeks hand making/crafting/cutting/sewing/stapling 300 limited edition covers, for 300 limited edition 7" black vinyl records. Each set includes the record in it's unrepentantly kick ass sleeve, a booklet with the guitar tablature and lyrics to the A Side and one of 300 red Encyclopedia picks. Take a look at the slightly underwhelming picture below

Believe me, it's about 1000 times better than the picture gives it credit for. Inside the booklet you also get a code which scores you a free download of both tracks, plus a bonus track called 'Hello' recorded during the same sessions.

So you can pre-order one of these singles starting right now from our online store for £5 including UK postage, or alternatively, if vinyl isn't your thing, you could just pay a small amount to download a high quality file from our Bandcamp page. All pre-orders will be sent out by the release date and will receive free stickers and badges and things. Great news huh? Yes. Another way you could buy it would be to come to one of our shows and come speak to us. That'd be sweet. We'll see you then.
