Happy 2009!

Hey folks, a very happy 2009 to y’all. It might not be a year with a fantastic outlook, but it sure seems like we’ve gotten off to a great start this year in some areas at least.

Firstly, our album is officially available in Singapore at HMV! Mad props to WMUM for making that happen. The album is retailing for S$17.95 a piece, so go grab one if you haven’t already.

And even more mad props – we’ve made #3 on the HMV alternative music charts. That’s GOT to mean something right?

Next, there’s a vote going on at soft.com.sg for the best local bands of 2008. Pop by and have your say!

Finally, we’ve got a couple shows happening in the next two weeks:

10 January, Channel 5 Live n Loaded roadshow @ Temasek Poly Open House. 7pm, together with Electrico.

17 January, Channel 5 Live n Loaded roadshow @ *scape, together with many other bands – TBC

See you guys at a show near you!
