Dear Children of the Earth,

Our band Canada has news for thee.  A fifth season is upon us.  It looks a lot like Fall but feels a lot like Summer, if you can imagine such a thing.  It is only during this season when we are graced with the reward of being able to speak with bird and beast, that trees will whip pearls down upon us from their orange leaves as we pass, that sun and moon become indistinguishable from one another, as one and other become undivided.  Stars coalesce into coffee cups, coffee creeps down throats, throats release sounds of fifth seasons!  We bring to you these truths and this news thus-wise. 

Our second LP is finished and is filled with what we are, for your ears and your worlds.  We are pleased as pigeons with it and cannot wait for the fates to remit it to you (March 2008).

Until then, we have this for you:

A video recording of our last day in the studio, featuring Steve Z the Squirrel hair done and owl donned, Puhpuh Saul singing on our new song Milk and Cupcake filming with precision truth, truly.

Enjoy and please know this:  In this world we were born and grew to become who we are and soon our paths will cross in this city or that and we shall share the glow of song and the glint of tale and we shall be closer to one another in the void of all that surrounds us, we shall not be alone but shall be giants upon the plane of remission that folds us ever so closer together, for better or for worse, for our fates are intertwined, we'll bring the wine if you bring your shoes. 

We love you and hope to share moments with you again so soon.  Happy first of December and may the rest of this year bring you vital joys and glittering loves.

The Boys and Girls of Canada
