Cloud of Sound

Newspaper_demo by thewicket

Started using this so we can post tracks a bit easier on the internet.
It'll have live stuff and demos and bits and bobs.

For the hi-fidelity studio recordings they'll be on our records, which you can buy here:: www.mesters.co.uk/shop.php

Back on the road again

Good to be back out there.
We hit up Blackpool's Blue Rooms last night. Was nice and loud and folks were into it. Cheers to Barry (of Goonies Never Say Die) for putting us on and cheers to The Colours for getting some noise out there too.

It truly is Vegas of the North.


We're even honoured with Stephen Gilbert's appearance. A founding member of The Wickets! He may of only been around making music with us for about 6 months 10 years ago...but he was there at the start! It was awesome to see him doing well and rocking out down the front..it's been at least 6 years since we crossed paths and he checked the noise out.



Coming up: We've got a few Nottingham gigs lined up, get the 7" out and then off round Europe's Mainland for a bit in April.
ONWARDS!

Hi there 2011 (in link form)

And how are you?

2010 - busy. But not busy enough.
2011 - here's to making it busier.

UPCOMING - we're working away on getting a new 7" out - going to be a double A side with By The Sea and Newspaper being the stonkers on each side. We've done the recording and move on to mixing, mastering, cutting, artwork. The lot. Still a way to go but it's going to be worth it.
Recorded live to tape in studio 2 at Mesters. It sounds obscene. The best we've ever sounded. It may be mandatory to say that with everything new you do..but it's a true story.

SPRING 2011 - We're off round the continent in April with Alright The Captain. We have more dates confirmed than not and you can see them listed on here with more being added over the next few weeks. We will be in France/Belgium/Netherlands/Germany(possbily)/Luxembourg(definately).

FACEBOOK - Just added a 'bandpage' to our - facebook profile - it's basically a myspace page as part of the whole facebook experience. Music and dates listed etc. Fantastic.

VISUALS - RooInns, a Nottingham stalwart, has uploaded a few choice tracks from our last gig in Nottingham at the tail end of 2010 - it's all there...here: http://tinyurl.com/69cmlo2 - click through at the end of each one for the next...there are 4 up there I think.

First up BLACKPOOL on Saturday 15th Jan at The Blue Room.

Should probably get off the internet and make some music.
ONWARDS!
