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.

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!
