With customary commercial good sense we thought we’d let you know about our new single a good month or so after it’s been released. Well, better late than never, eh?
It’s called Karmarama and once again NROne Records are the lovely people who are bringing it forth into the world. This time, however, it’s not actually available as a physical product and only as some sort of digital download hocus pocus.
If you go to the NROne website at www.nrone.co.uk you will find a link to itunes and emusic, where you can snaffle it up. Alternatively you could visit another of this other online vendor who will exchange cash money for aural pleasure:

It’s had a couple of spins on the radio already, with Mr Tom Robinson broadcasting it to the nation on his BBC 6 Music show last week.
If you did want to own this as an actual physical product, then on the 12th October you can do just this, as part of our CD mini-album ‘rarararararaRA!’. Artwork is just being assembled as we speak, and suffice to say we are fizzing with excitement at the prospect.
Other exciting events in the ‘Sweat calendar include our long awaited session with Huw Stephens on BBC Radio 1. We recorded it earlier in the year and it now has a broadcast date of Wednesday 26th August on Huw’s super fine show, along with an interview with us, which we’ll be recording next week. The last time Huw interviewed us for his radio show was in a lift at BBC Radio Merseyside, so hopefully we’ll be somewhere a bit more spacious this time.
There is also a couple of new dates just confirmed, including a particularly exciting one at the Norwich Arts Centre on 13th October with the amazing Micachu & The Shapes, and the equally amazing, and Mercury Music Prize nominated The Invisible.
Finally we’d like to take the opportunity to thank everyone who came to see us at the Latitude Festival last month. We ended up playing twice over the course of the weekend as we did a little turn in the Film & Music arena as part of Indie Ghetto, as well as our performance on the Lake Stage, and we thoroughly enjoyed both of them, not to mention the rest of the festival itself, which reached a particularly fine crescendo courtesy of Nick Cave & his Bad Seeds. Hopefully everyone who got one of our headbands had more luck keeping hold of them than I did, as I managed to lose mine over the course of the weekend.
Happy rest of the summer to you all.
