DTTR New release! Brother Oak 10/10/09

The final days of swimming in ice cold Maine water, (while it's actually sweltering outside) are over and we have been very verrry verrry busy! Amidst work, school, bills, pumpkins, recording, birthdays, camping, apple picking, dancing and dishes we here at  Dontrustheruin Records have come out with a gorgeous new  release.  Brother Oak is our brother in life and music. He shines...
 Fall is here! 

Last weekend we saw...

12,000 Trees

What Cheer? Brigade rocked the RO HE GE  Barn and made us all shake our tail feathers

 Uke of Space County Corners crooned and bloomed--always with the most beautiful voices and sounds. They are my absolute favorite band to listen to --on record and live!

We played almost all new stuff and improvised alot

Daniel Higgs conjured and testified by the fire fumbling for light in the dark.

The shows were awesome and exhausting, the people we met and walked with and talked to ruled.

Tapes Rule

Holy tapes that look and sound good! 

Our friends and compadres from Athens, Greece a.k.a.Reverse Mouth totally rule!! One member, Panagiotis runs a label here. He put a lovely tape version of our album The Grove about a year ago. I just love his taste in paper and print.

 We played two shows with Reverse Mouth two weeks ago at a barn in Conway, Mass withHorse Spirit Penetrates(love love love 'em), a solo performance from Human Adult Band which stole my heart, and Michael Jackson--michael thomas jackson that is. (I have to add a side note...I truly hate the formatting, messaging and pop up freak-out-ness of myspace. However the upside of that ruinous marketing tool is that we can all go to these band sites and hear what people are doing right now... and for that i am sort of thankful.)

i drew during almost all of the sets at the barn show.

 Thanks to Kieran for his superior hospitality, HSP's killer set, and bear hugginess. We stayed up waaaay to late--not being parents just music-cans, riding the crazy frenetic moshing energy of the night and taking cracks at lame contemporary singers while defending Sade, thanks to the late night crew.

The pawtucket show was more serious and somber. we wer lucky to play with Uke of spaces and lucky they played on our set. Soo many friends came out it was overwhelming and awesome. I forgot my camera or maybe i left it at home on purpose. Here's the scrawling diary like snapshots of our two day "tour".
