NEW SINGLE UP ON THE MYSPACE

MAJOR TOUR WITH HOT HOT HEAT AND THE TEENAGERS IN GERMANY

FREE XMAS PRESENT DOWNLOAD ON SITE

there....want to know more, read on.

Happy December Ladies and Gentleman,
As everyone else hits the shops for Christmas shopping, or heads to the bar for a boozy regretable Xmas party, OSA hunker down in their hidden bunker and add the finishing touches to some rather exciting things.
Firstly you may notice a new song on our profile. It's called Believe Me, it was written in our Manchester Attic Space (Or MAS as it's referred to in UN documents) this October and recorded by the wonderful Ed Buller. It's being put up here to coincide with exciting thing number 2!!

Which is that we are heading off on a rather spiffing tour of Germany in the New Year. Ourselves, the wodnerful Hot Hot Heat, and the splendid The Teenagers, will be tearing around Germany in the name of love, peace, and passion in february. To make it interesting we're also heading back to France and Italy before we arrive. I think it will probably be the best thing ever to happen in February ever!! (this is is subject to confirmation by the Guiness Book Of February!)

Finally our Christmas Fan Give Away "River" a cover of the Joni Mitchell song, is up for download as well. Recorded in MAS (How long before this term enters into every day parlance one asks himself) using only one vintage tube microphone found in the rubble of an old Manchester Casion it's a thank you for all the support you've given us over the last year.

Also a big thank you to everyone who came down and helped us sell out the Barfly last Tuesday. Our heads and hearts have nearly recovered!!

Lots of Love

You may have noticed a rather beautiful poster has appeared in our myspace picture window. It's the poster for our Christmas Party and it's been created by Bryonoy Lloyd who was responsible for all the artwork for Undertstanding Electricity and the following singles. She is lovely and wonderful and extremely talented and you should check her out big style!!

If you haven't already (and one can't imagine why) then you can buy tickets for the Christmas show here

But do it quick, these shows have a tendancy to sell out.

Much Love and Respect

Ok... To clear up any confusion:


We are onstage early at Lovebox at 1.30pm. So make sure you get down early if you want to see is. No rocking up at 5 in the afternnon for OSA fans OH NO!


And then our acoustic set on the roof of the Southbank Centre for United Underground Festival will be at 6pm. If you haven't seen the line up for this (Plan B, Theoreitical girl, Get Cape Wear Cape, Afrikan Boy) have a look at the flier on our profile.... Amazing


See you over the weekend xxx

If you look into our new profile picture you will see myself and Tom with Jasper Future and Eddie Argos of Art Brut holding a drop the debt poster.

After our show at Glastonbury we were meant to go and play a drop the debt secret gig at the Drop The Debt bus. However due to our load out taking 2 hours longer than it should of we were late and many of you had left to go and see Yeah Yeah Yeahs (Fair enough!).

However OSA are not ones to be beaten by mere load out over-runs (We are the band that played through broken backs!!) so we gathered Art Brut fresh from their Other Stage performance and headed over to the bus. A greatest hits set of Mainstream (With Art Brut on BVs) So Tomorrow and a cover of Hungry Heart done in the style of Mr Argos raised a smile, some glasses of beer, and hoepfully some awareness of the super awesome campaign that the gents at Drop The Debt are doing. There address is here, check it out

The tour with Athlete is going great guns so hello to everyone we've met on the tour. The shows have been absolutely driving and with Alex nearly out of hospital it's made us very anxious to get back on the road and play for everyone again properly.

Hope you are all enjoying your beautiful British Summer and we'll see you somewhere soon i'm sure.

So our next gig is 3rd July at the Central Station in Wrexham - the start of 11 gigs together with Athlete! Don't miss it!

Lots of love,
