Dear all,
It’s been awhile since we last “spoke”. I hope you’ve all been good and well.
It has been a busy and hugely enjoyable summer for us: live shows, releasing our new cd “EP VOL.1”, filming a video in London (while playing one of our best gigs ever at the Windmill in Brixton!) and working on some new material for a new full length album due out in 2010.
Our new cd, “EP VOL.1”, has been available at shows since August and is now available for download from iTunes and physically from the following stores:
www.cdbaby.com/cd/lowlandsmusic2 (USA & World)
www.caru.com (Italy)
www.redeye.com.au (Australia)
You can also get our CDs directly from us: www.lowlandsband.com
The radios that supported “The Last Call” are once again giving us a hand with this new EP. So far tracks from the EP have been played in the US, UK, Italy, France and Holland. Belgium and Germany as of next week! Thanks to all those DJs for giving us a shot!
We were particularly proud and grateful that 2 tracks from the EP (Lullaby & Walking Down The Street) were featured on consecutive episodes of Karen Miller’s spectacular Americana radio program “The Miller Tells Her Tale”. Thanks Karen! Free FM in Germany is currently playing the same 2 tracks. Let us know what your favourite tracks are!
The first reviews are coming in and we’ll be posting them in the following weeks.
GIGS:
We’re opening for the wonderful Chris Cacavas as he plays Bergamo promoting his excellent new record "Love's been discontinued" on Saturday November 28th.
2 other gigs we are very excited about are:
Le Scimmie, the legendary Milan club, will have us play 2 sets on the 10th of December and we close the year in our hometown for a New Year’s Eve gig at Spaziomusica (a stage that has been graced by some of our favourite musicians and bands: Joe Ely, You Am I, Marah, Steve Wynn, Lucero, Rod Picott, Nick Barker, Magnolia Electric Co.) so if you’re undecided on where to get drunk, fall in love and throw up on NYE...we’ll be waiting for ya in Pavia!
Love always
LOWLANDS
