Short Dispatch News from the End of the Year

And so 2012 closes and we are all still here. Back to the start for the same is the same but…..Only the years change.

We were happy to have finished and released (in France) Global Lows in 2012 and are pleased to announce the album will be released further a field in 2013 both physically and digitally. News on this will be posted very, very soon. Until then you can purchase both our albums on CD from the online shop, which is now up and running.

Never ones to rest on our laurels we spent some weeks in the Autumn writing new material and plan to write more material early 2013. As we didn’t play many live shows in 2012 we thought we’d use the time creatively and the new material we have written we feel is some of the best material we have done thus far. We are exited about getting a bunch of new songs out there to you all in 2013 plus you can also expect some remixes too.

A massive thanks to everyone who has supported us this year, as always we salute you all. Cheers

We are BirdPen x
