Hey guys, we have been so busy the last weeks and we have kinda neglegted to write a blog. There are som many things we want to tell you guys but we try to be brief and try to remember everything:
First of all we got a new member and is it a Bass player kalled Balli. We would like to thank Vignir and Halfdán for their help while we were searching for a permanent member and their skilled playing helped us put on some kick ass shows we otherwise would have needed to cancel. Another new member of the Nögl team is Heimir, but he has been hired as a full time manager and will take over bookings and releated matters. To accomidate these changes we also got a new rehersal space and if look hard enough you can see some footage from that on youtube.
Our summer will be intense and first and forhtmost we are excited about our first album that will come out in next month. It will be called "I Proudly Present" and the mixing is scheduled to be finished within the next 2-3 weeks.
in conjustion with the album we are going on 3 tours this summer and has the first one already started. We are now in the middle of our first Icelandic Tour and will that go on untill the 5th of July. We are touring with the bands "Endless Dark", "At Dodge City" and "Gordon Riots" and last night at dillon gave us a good taste of the intensity that will define this tour. Right after this tour we will start our second tour with "Cosmic Call" but more details on that later.
To end the summer we are going on a tour in the U.S. and will be accommodated by our U.S. friends in "Farewell to fashion". We start the tour August 15 and will play 6 shows in Florida and Gorgia. Later this year the tables will turn and we get Farwell over here and do a Icelandic tour!
Lastly we would like to give thanks for the help we have been given but Icelandair, Kraumur and Menntamálaráðuneytið have stood by us financially.
Here is a first look of the new t-shirts that we are bringin on the tour tonight:
