Back!



Hello everyone!
 Halloween came and went so, a haunted blog is not cool anymore. Currently we are spending our time in the studio working on our new songs which will be out hopefully soon. Sonic playground and bonebrokk are helping us out and we are really excited about how the songs sound. Still in our Halloween costumes and wondering if you can get poisoning  by chewing too many peppermint gums.

We are going to be announcing some really good news real soon!

Hugs and kisses!

Sweet Summer

This summer has been really sweet until now!

We had an amazing gig at Lagadia, Garfield went crazy on the beach while swimming and digging holes and Jens Lekman is releasing a new album and a new E.P. at the same time! 

The coolest thing though is that we are now represented in th U.K. by Paws Music! A really cool new record label from London. You should check out the rest of the bands on their roster too, we think they are really cool. We will soon let you know more about this collaboration. 

In other news, we are going to record some new songs really soon. For now though, we are going to drink some homemade lemonade and send some huge hugs to all of you!

Take care and have fun!

Summertime...


Hello,
   Hope summer’s treating you well and that you’re having a great time out there! Lately we’ve been studying for our uni/college exams and watching Garfield grow. We are also into making and drinking summer cocktails with our friends (Tony is getting really good in making Caipirinhas and Margaritas. He looks like a scientist when he is mixing the ingredients) We are also planning to start walking on the beach and start swimming around later this month. The only thing that brings us down is that we won’t be able to visit our favorite festival in the world. Indietracks festivalL. This year Indietracks has an amazing line up and we would love it to be there. In other news we will be writing new songs soon but we don’t know if we are going to make a new release this year. We also uploaded a new video on youtube from the Velvet bus tour that took place some months ago. It was an amazing experience and we had lots of fun. We also made some new friends and shared the stage with three really cool bands that we love (The Callas, The Velvoids and Nasty Beach).  We are sure that we will meet onstage again and it will be  perfect like it always is.


Talk to you soon! Till then enjoy your beautiful summer days!

Weekend!

Lately we've been practicing hard for our upcoming tour with the Velvet Bus. We couldn't tour with a full band, so we had to make some backing tracks to accompany us on-stage. Actually we had to start them over because the first ones wouldn't give the feeling that we wanted. So we started freaking out a little bit but our friend Stratos saved the day! He came at the studio and in two days everything sounded amazing. We would like to thank him for being such a cool friend. Stratos is the guitarist/multi instrumentalist of the band Exposed By Observers, they are a really energetic cool band that we like a lot.









Here is a little gift. It is a live performance of our song "Gloomy Morning". This version was recorded for the pilot of a TV Show that never made it on air.

We will be announcing a couple of post velvet bus gigs soon.

Have a great weekend!

Packing up


Last week we performed at one of the biggest radio shows in France. It is called “Le Fou Du Roi”(of the radio station France inter). Many well known artists have performed on this show. (Peter Doherty, Katie Melua, Cyndi Lauper, Phoenix and Rufus Wainwright just to name a few). We played our song “Early Summer”. It was an amazing experience. We were also excited to meet  Claudia Cardinale in person.

That same night we went at the closing party of this year’s Festival du film Francophone. There, Terpsichore almost made Emir Kusturica fall on the floor! It was a really awkward moment for us but he was really cool. He just smiled and kept on walking. We couldn’t believe that we met him that way!

In other news, we are getting ready for a Greek tour with the Velvet Bus.Imagine a bus full of bands and cool artists. We are so excited to be on the road again. The velvet bus is a moving festival curated by the Velvet magazine.  

Here are the dates of the tour:

29/4:City: Volos              Venue: Warehouse
30/4:City: Kavala             Venue: I Aliki Exei Lathos Agori
 1/5: City: Serres            Venue: Rococo
 2/5: City: Thessaloniki    Venue: Partizan
 3/5: City: Patra              Venue: Stone Bar
 4/5: City: Lagadia Arkadias  Venue: Café Platanos
 6/5: City: Irakleio           Venue: Blow Up
 7/5: City: Xania (Dromonero Xaniwn)     Venue: Eleourgeion (art factory)
13/5:City: Athens            Venue: Six D.O.G.S

Yesterday we did a small research to see if our cd is really out there (at the record shops)...some photo evidence:


Our album on the recommendations section next to Joan As Policewoman and The Decemberists? We could never imagine this one!

Garfield

We are extremely proud of our beautiful puppy ,Garfield.
I know,you'll say "what?a dog named Garfield?" but he loves sleeping,eating and he is red(kind of) so it seems like it suits him.
What's more ,he hardly ever barks, he mostly meows ,which is weird of course but so convenient at the same time (have you ever heard of a neighbour annoyed by a cat?That's what I'm talking about!)

And last but not least,we have to admit that being huge Garfield fans ourselves,we have always wanted to name something after him.It just happened to be our beloved puppy. :)



ok you can take a look now...Tell us what you think.We think he's gorgeous.

Pac man :)


Hello, we got a couple of e-mails requesting the lyrics of our song "Pac man" from our album (Yojikevin) so we are posting them here too. Thank you for getting in touch with us! It means a lot and makes us happy. You can always drop us a line here: lepageband@gmail.com

Here is an article with some interesting facts about Pac man (not our song, the real one). 

PAC MAN lyrics:
I’m waking up
I’m growing down
I’m getting drunk
I’m getting drowned
I am ashamed
To let me know
I feel the need
You’ll never show
I get confused
The city lights
Are blinding me
They shine so bright
I look around
But I can’t tell
What could you be?
I’ll always care
Chorus
I try to catch you
I thought I saw you
I’m sure I’ll find you

A pair of eyes
Is chasing me
Inside this maze
There’s no escape
The eyes are ghosts
And I am lost
I’ve got a Pac dot
The ghosts turn blue
The ghosts turn blue
I chase them too
Some extra points
Won’t save my soul
I’m getting close
But they are strong
An extra life
But no high score

Chorus
I’m trying to catch you
I thought I saw you
I’m sure I’ll catch you

Hello there!
Hope everything is great.

Last summer we were fortunate enough to attend the cutest festival in the world, Indietracks, where we saw so many cool bands play that our "bands to see live list" was seriously shrunk.
Our top five performances from the festival were :
1. Allo darlin
2. White Town 
3. Stars of Aviation
4. cineplexx
5. The Smittens

Looking forward to another indie pop summer thanks to Indietracks!
Hopefully some day we'll get the chance to perform there.It would be lovely :)






..and some pictures from our last year's experience.
