So! Gigs coming up are above. Come see us at some nice little swanky venues. Full band chinawhites will be fit. As will the show with the fabidosi string quartet at fym fyg bar in bethnal green. Alternatively come see me as a loner struttin my thang :)

Since our big EMI Publishing signing party gig at pigalle, it's been meeting after meeting, from visionary a n r, to songwriting collab opportunities, to our boys at EMI publishing UK, to non-visionary a n r! Ha! We've been offered an amazing record deal from german partners for the GAS region (germany, austria, switzerland), a major distributor and some major european marketing companies and venue owners. It guarantees us a 50 date tour for 2009, an amazing marketing budget, our own tour bus and our own apartment in hamburg. It also pays for us to finish the record with a great budget, which means we are defo getting my favorite orchestra in on the job! Eeeeeeeeek! Get in. Woop woop!

However, now it would seem that the majors in the UK also want to get involved. If they don't make offers before we sign the german deal in december then all that's left for them is licensing our project out at a later date for a much higher cost to them, territory by territory. Roll on december...
