Humbug! On Dec 6, 2024, we will be releasing a Christmas EP, “Blue and Silver”, during Bandcamp Friday. The EP will be “Pay What You Want” on Bandcamp for the first two weeks and all Bandcamp sales on Release Day, Dec 6, go directly to the us thanks to Bandcamp waiving their fee for Bandcamp Fridays. The EP will also be available via other major online stores and streaming platforms. About the EP:
Another corporate Christmas money grab; it’s not even about the appropriated pagan festivals anymore! Just a recycled memory of holidays past, when you got your newest obsession… or didn’t, and it made a lasting impression which is now your therapist’s problem. Revisit three old friends you only see once a year or just donate $20 and say you did. This Christmas, it’s Electronic Rock with hints of Trip Hop, Country and Western, The Muppets, Disney soundtracks, animated clay and a whole lotta Christmas Spirit! Whether you’re in the Northern snow or the Southern sun, these French hens are sure to embellish at least 9 minutes of yule time.

While we continue to work on new material and such, we do have a couple of shows booked. On July 25th, we join Single Lash and Weird Wolves for Hot Summer Nights presented by The Red River Cultural District. This is going to be a real cool show. We have been fans of Single Lash for some time now and Weird Wolves will be moving away from the more acoustic shows they play in favor of presenting more of their electronic sound. Then later in the year, September 18, in fact, we will be opening for… POP WILL EAT ITSELF! ’nuff said! Visit the Shows page for more info.
