So tomorrow we going to Tim Lengfeld to finalize the mastering. We received one track so far, sent it away for the music video. So in about a week the video will be good to go.

The show on the 19th at Purple Turtle has been moved down the road for another day: 22nd June at Zula Bar. The line-up is still to be confirmed.

The Sacred Wood


Music Video Update:
We shot the music video for Mercenary this weekend. Helen Raine and her crew are awesome, was so great to work with them! We are very excited to see the final product. We will keep you posted.

Gig News:
We have a show at Zula Bar in Cape Town on Friday the 2nd of April with The Lua Union. Promises to be a great night.
Thank you to everyone who came to watch us with Ashtray Electric and Wrestlerish, it was a superb show. We played a new song, tentatively named "Apollo".

So things are falling into place nicely; once the video is complete we will be working on a tour up to Pretoria and Jo'burg later in the year.

The Wrestler's Electric Lottery Ticket

Gig News:
We have a superb show with Wrestlerish and Ashtray Electric on Friday the 26th of March at Mercury in Cape Town. Wrestlerish are releasing their album on this tour to the Cape, so we all going to bring our A-game.

Music Video News:
Another meeting has decided, after many postponements, that we will definitely be shooting the video for Mercenary on the weekend of the 26th of March. Very excited.

Album News:
We recorded another track last week, adding finishing touches soon, and then we going to master it. This song is probably the rawest of our songs, we are proud of it. Mike, the graduate, has been working hard on the album design. This album is going to be a honest piece of hard work from the four of us.

Merchandise News:
Financing the video and album is kind of costly, but as soon as we have some clarity from our respective ATM receipts, we are going to make something to keep you warm in winter, sipping on a coffee or tea, late at night, listening to our album, watching the trees.



Back in the day :)
