Last Show For The Year

After a few weekends of non-stop shows for us, we're going to be taking a long break from playing shows to re-vamp a few things in our world, most importantly our discography. We're going into the studio with Justin Williams (12,000 Armies) and Josh Pope (The Love Language, The Light Pines) to record a full length that will probably end up around twelve or thirteen tracks. We're hoping to have it out by the spring if we don't go broke by that point. There will be some lineup changes and lots of new songs, so please bear with us in the interim.

In the mean time, however, you can still come see us one more time before the year is over this Saturday at the Duke Coffeehouse with The Explorer's Club and Tripp, which should be a great show and only $5. It's been a while since we've been at the Coffehouse and are really looking forward to it once again. We enjoyed the hell out of ourselves at Troika this weekend in Durham and are excited to be coming back to the Bull City for our last show of the year.

Also, our various members are all now involved in several other projects that will hopefully be around town in the meantime, including Missy Thangs' Soft Company, Violet Vector and the Lovely Lovelies, and our good friend Alex Maiolo's super-psychedelic Nuggets-era cover band The Julies. We'll keep you posted on those shows, too.

So, to recap:

We have posted 4 new tracks from our recent recording sessions in January (recent?) that we have finally finished mixing down. They are songs you will recognise if you've seen us play in the last few months, and hopefully you'll enjoy them. We probably won't be doing anything fancy with them, just using them for press stuff, radio stations, etc. If you reeeally like them and want a copy, just let us know.

Cheers,
'Nots

Boys Are Back In Town

Having recently moved into our new digs at 1100 N. Greensboro street, now officially dubbed "Château Huguenot," we boys are now residents of the much esteemed Carrboro, NC. We have a really large practice space which we will be sharing with our friends Violet Vector & The Lovely Lovelies in the near future, a future which will also hopefully include some house shows and whatnot. We also have a show with these lovely ladies (and lads) on September 5th at the Local 506, also including the raucous Atlanta quarter Howlies. It will be only one of two shows we'll be doing in town this semester (the other being Luego's CD release party in October with The Tomahawks), so please try and come out. We have a few more shows scheduled, so you can check those out below.

We were also lucky to be selected to partipate in the amazing lineup for Troika's 2009 festival, which includes some of our favorite bands like Max Indian, Hammer No More The Fingers, and Birds of Avalon. We're thrilled to be included amongst such an impressive roster. Head here to get the full story.

We also just finished up our final batch of demos that we recorded at Track & Field recording studio with the also-esteemed Nick Peterson. They should be replacing all our puny self-made recordings in the near future--we're waiting on the funding to get them mastered. Keep your eyes/ears out.

Dates:

8/27: Tir Na Nog (Raleigh) w/ The Stars Explode

9/5: Local 506 (CH) w/ Violet Vector & the Lovely Lovelies, Howlies

9/19: The Pinhook (Durham) w/ Jaguar Club and Sea Cow

10/17: Luego CD Release show @ Local 506 (CH)

11/5-11/7: Troika Music Festival (Durham)

11/14: Duke Coffeehouse (Durham) w/ The Explorer's Club

Boys of Summer

So-

Not too much to report here, right now we're all taking time to enjoy the freedom of summer and doing our separate things between a few shows we have coming up. We'll be playing in Winston-Salem at the Wherehouse with two fantastic bands --Terrance & The Tall Boys and Hammer No More The Fingers--on Friday night. If you're in the Triad area you should try and make it out. We will also be doing a low-key show at Carrboro's The Station on Saturday with Chapel Hill's The Alcazar Hotel. Both shows should be fun.

In other Huguenots news, we have the fortune to be joining not only our best friends Violet Vector & The Lovely Lovelies but also the fantastic Black Hollies at the Local 506 on Thursday June 25th. Below is the amazing poster than Dan Warfield (the brains behind our other groovy posters) designed for the show. Definitely the coolest poster we've ever had our names on. That evening promises to be a groove'n'paisley-filled evening so try and come out. Also, we're playing a short abbreviated set which will probably consist of half old songs and half new ones, so it might be worth coming out to see that. Hope all is well, hope to see you out soon,

(wish me speedy recoveries--I've been nursing a really nasty sore throat for the last two weeks, so fingers crossed that I'll be medicated enough to make it through the shows this weekend)
