Hey guys, R.T. here bringing you the latest, sizzling news about UG the
un-self-proclaimed-4th-from-the-next-medium-sized-thing!
So welcome. Visit the website (www.unevenground.ca), sign the guestbook and
curl up with a good pet.
1) THE NEW SINGLE has been given a release date! The brand new UG studio track,
"Over4", will be released on the website on February 29. Guitar-tech JSn said
of the release date "We picked it cuz it's not a real day... not usually." Yes
folks, @ midnight, February 29 (That's right after 11:59 pm, Feb 28) the doors
of grandeur will swing open and stuff. Be the first one in your neighbourhood
to put "Over4" in your file-sharing folder!
This track, along with 2 others were recorded @ Studio A in Detroit, Michigan
and @ The Music Room in "Just-outside-three-small-towns", Ontario.

2) UNEVEN GROUND IS HOSTING A VERY special event, coming up soon. The official
Uneven Ground launch party is a limited seating event for fans and friends of
UG. The band will be playing a full set, including first-time performances of
several brand spankin' new UG songs, along with a track or two that haven't been
heard live in years. There will be food, merch and everyone in attendance will
receive a special promotional kit (available nowhere else!) including a CD
containing the new single, two other studio tracks and some very cool extras!
Capacity for this event is very limited and a portion of the seating is reserved
for invited guests. Tickets will be $10 and are available on a first-come,
first-served basis. Time and Location are TBA, but if you want to ensure a spot
(or two) email the band @ uglaunch@... right away with your name and
contact information. 411 on location will be dispersed only to confirmed
attendees. There will be no "At-The-Door" admission available.

3) "THE FIRST ALBUM Uneven Ground ever recorded, was done in Detroit, Michigan,
back in about 1995. The album was never released (with good reason...). The
first Album UG ever released was recorded @ the Music Room in Ontario. It's
interesting that the culmination of years of ups and downs have arrived at an
exciting new release, recorded in both those places, landmarks for the band.
Things have changed a lot since that first album, and even since Arkona Fairway.
One thing is the same, though. UG writes music that comes from inside, whatever
style it needs to be, whatever needs to be said, and always with intensity. The
material that's in process even as I write this is just awesome. Nathan and I
have both grown as musicians and song-smiths (heh) over the years and the
addition of seasoned bassist, "B-rian" (La Pinski, was it?) and his deft low-end
craftsmanship, along with the awesome song-writing and singing talent that UG
alumnus Tony Lavender has brought back into the band (Tony was the singer on our
first official release, the EP Groovekrank) is making for a very satisfying
song-writing experience. Sharing faith makes the fabric of this group
all-the-more tightly knit. I'm very pleased with where UG is headed. The
direction is new, but we've not abandoned our old fans. It's an excellent
transition (as will become clearer in the next couple of months) between the
band that was and the band that is.
Mmm hmmm, and how!"

the promo-pic's section for some shots from the studio. www.unevenground.ca
4) "UNEVEN GROUND DID NOT appear on the Grammy's. That was Sting. Just to set
the record straight." - Kojak, Drum-Tech, UG.
Alright, there you go. Nothing too clever to say just now. Hm. Hope this
doesn't get me fired. Ack! My backspace key is busted...
