hi everyone,

its been awhile since we updated the site and we thought we would let you all know that things are alive and well in the signal hill camp. we began recording our first tunes for the follow up to More After We’re Gone.  we spent a glorious friday and saturday night at the compound studio in signal hill with our friend jeff lewis and patrick murphy.  we have fully tracked 4 songs so far and hope to go back and record more tunes in december. very excited with what we have so far! we arent sure exactly how itll be released yet (an ep, a couple of splits etc.) so while we await for those details to finalize, we are working on writing more jams! we will surely post sneak peaks of some of the new songs. stay tuned for more details on that front (there is a video at the bottom of this post which plays a little snippit!)

in a few non signal hill news items, our good bros are heading to the east coast for their first east coast tour next month! go view their tour dates and see them if they are in your town. such a great band, and the best dudes! they are playing some great shows with caspian (whos on an epic european tour right now), the american dollar, gifts from enola and a handful of other awesome bands.

in other buddies touring news, our friend rajiv patel (who actually played our ep release party a couple years ago) is heading on a month long tour opening for dear and the headlights and kinch. we cant say enough about how amazing this dude is live. his tour dates are posted on his myspace .

our friend rob price (who did the artwork for both the ep and our full length) and his wife kathy launched a new website called quotecookie.com. this site is a quote generate loaded with quotes that inspire creativity. grab a cookie each day or submit your own quote for others to enjoy!

thats about it for now, oh and our australia recap is coming at some point in the near future!!!

hit us up with some new music suggestions (tristeza and mercury program both drop new albums in december and november respectively WOOOO HOOO!).

best,

sh

howdy all,

weve been a bit quiet as of late due to both non-signal hill stuff as well as agressive prepping to hit the studio for our first ever full length album! we will begin tracking on May 16th (recording 11-12 songs) with hopes of finishing early summer.  the plan is to spend a couple of days with our good friend jeff lewis at the compound studio  (by coincidence or destiny? you decide!) located on top of signal hill to begin this process.

we are super excited to share these new songs with you, and will keep you posted on our progress!

thats it for now! hope things are all good in your world(s)!

your pals,

sh
