hey everyone,
it was over a year ago that we played our last concert...
since that night we have all been up to a lot of really good things… having babies, making new music, making art exhibitions, traveling, singing in choirs, playing in other bands, and all kinds of mischief…
we wanted to thank you folks for your continued support and kindness.. .but we thought it was also right for us to let you know that we are not playing together anymore. and we have no plans to continue playing together…. NOW, that doesn't mean that we didn't have fun last year touring and having good drunken times together, because those were some amazing times. but we are all excited to keep trying new things and new projects…
so here you can can download (for free!) our two albums and our ep. the first album is from 2003, just called "Parachutes". our second album was recorded on a mountain top castle in italy in 2004. That album is called "Susy", named after the beautiful dog living with us on that mountain. Last is our ep "Tree Roots" made in 2008, recorded in reykjavik iceland, and mixed by jónsi.
thanks again for everything...
hugs,
alex, scott, tinna, thordis, brandan, kari, aaron, bibbi, kristinn...

We just came home to Reykjavík from our very first tour. We drove around, playing every night, for two and a half weeks all over the states... The tour was so much fun, a big thanks to everyone was came to our concerts and supported us! We had an amazing time all together... lots of Glíma (icelandic wrestling) and hotel parties!
... So now we are ready for one more tour, we are really happy to announce that we will be going on tour with Sigur Rós on their tour of USA and Canada. It's going to be three weeks of good times! We hope to to see you there...
Also, we did manage to finish a mini-album that will be available on CD at these concerts. And we made some posters and small envelopes full of dandelion seeds.
Happy end of summer, Alex & Scott
