Thanks to everyone who came to our shows at Dalston Roof Park and the Wilmington Arms, both very good fun. The Roof Park was especially idyllic in the evening sun. I confess I had forgotten how long 'Paris, Texas' was, but still awesome.
We've been recording some live videos, of which more news soon.
This is another amazing sequence of noises from Mount Eerie:

9 Days till See/Hear Club

. .Where we will be playing and then showing 'Paris, Texas' by Wim Wenders. I can't guarantee it won't rain, but I watched Rozi Plain the other week in between torrential downpours, and under the big inflatable cover everything was dry and cosy. We're hoping to include a couple of new songs, both still a little bit under construction. In the meantime I've mostly been listening to the new Dirty Projectors album, and discovering Mount Eerie. This is a song from the album 'Wind's Poem', which is a weird and awesome mixture of quiet acoustic strummery and interludes of black metal noises:

No Direction Home

No Direction Home festival was great fun, personal highlights were Austra, Other Lives and David Thomas Broughton. These are some photos from our set on Friday night, by Laura Lewis (www.lauralewisphotography.co.uk):

See/Hear Club

So our next London show is on July the 25th, at Dalston Roof Park. After we play we're showing 'Paris, Texas' by Wim Wenders, which is an awesome film. This is what it looks like:


Slightly closer is our set at No Direction Home festival, which has an amazing line-up, and should be great.

Great Escape & Lets Get Lost Weekender

We are also playing on a stage organised by Neighbourhood at the Great Escape Festival in Brighton this Friday, at the Fishbowl. Loads of other great people are playing the same stage on the same day, including Woodpecker Wooliams, Rozi Plain, Sam Brookes, Emma Gatrill, and Ben from Mariner's Children performing a solo set.
The day afterwards we are headed up to Derby bright and early in order to start off the Saturday proceedings of the Lets Get Lost Weekender. Incidentally, I think we are taking the place of a band called Papier Tigre, who couldn't play, but are great.

No Direction Home

We are very excited to be playing No Direction Home Festival which runs from the 8th to the 10th of June  
on the Welbeck Estate near Sheffield. We are playing on the Friday evening. The line-up is awesome, and if it's anything like it's companion festival, End of the Road, it's going to be amazing.
