Hey kidz,

 

I hope everyone is doing well.  Kind of a lot going on now that I think about it. 

 

As you may know Lycia's remastered The Burning Circle And Then Dust has hit the press & radio centers & is about to hit stores.

 

We have some new artists on our roster whose releases will be coming out in the next few months.  They are:

Heller Mason - a singer-songwriter recommended to us by Rivulets.  He's got kind of a Neil Young ala Harvest vibe.

Black Happy Day - a collaboration between Tara VanFlower (Lycia) & Timothy Renner (Stonebreath).  If you know both of these artists already, it sounds exactly like you might think.  It's a bit hard to describe, maybe ambient roots music?

Alan Sparhawk - solo-guitarscapes from Alan of Low.  Minimalist guitar drone in the style of Aarktica & Remora.

Plumerai - bliss-pop from Boston.  We've been friends with these guys since they formed.  So it was just a matter of time before it happened.  They're musical influences are pretty shoegazery, but they have a style all of their own.

 

The first issue of our new mini-comic XO is going to be ready soon.  I've seen the pencils & I like it a lot.  The comic is a black-comedy about a reforming criminal.

 

There's a recent interview I did at  Lallabbau ( http://www.lallabbau.splinder.com ) about Silber Records, Remora, & Lost Kisses.
