Hello!

A few years back (those halcyon days of 2006, to be exact), I went on a solo tour of the U S of A and recorded all the shows. A tidy compilation of those recordings is set to be released by my good friends at Kill Rock Stars on April 8th. It's got quite a few songs on it, drawing mainly from the Decemberists' ouevre, and it'll be available on CD and d-luxe double LP (with an extra track, no less!). I'll be going on an extensive US tour following the release. I'll post those dates soon.

Hooray!

Colin.

Hi Colin,

I 'umbly suggest that you consider a sojourn to these Sandwich Isles during your solo tour. Things are not so bad here, what with the palm trees and the sand, which make a nice backdrop to a concert.

'umbly,

Jim

I'm listening to it right now. I'll be sure to play something from it on the radio show. If you are ever in Bristol UK, I hope you will come and record a radio session with us!

Happy Dynamic living!
