I played solo the other night. Although it was super fun it seemed to turn somewhat in to a comedy show, which I think I'm cool with. Difficult to play with the footy blazin' at the locals. Anyhow it was heaps of fun and I'm keen to do it again. So fang us a solo show anyone.
Here's a demo of "I Wish..." recorded on a camera and mic the size of a pinhead.

New EP Digital Release - Camcorder
Well it's been real!
We played Blackwire records last Friday night which was pretty awesome. I haven't actually been there before. Nice vibe fun times. We played with one of my favourite Brisbane bands Nova Scotia. Who ruled. Bought their LP which I am dying to hear as soon as I get my record player up and running. Brain Drain also supported. We met Adam in Melbourne last time when we played the Old Bar... Gilligan Island Pinball.
Townie was on Saturday. Thanks so much to the Making and the Silver Drops who joined us on the stage. Both bands were fantastic. Thanks to Benny who was honorary 4th member on the night. That isn't taking away from Pat Delorian who brought the chops to actually playing as opposed to Benny's stories about Sperm Whale Hearts. I heart you guys. Love playing the Townie the sound always rules, that's you Dave.
We are racing to the finish line to put out our 3rd E.P. - Camcorder. Check it out on Band Camp now. Check out Kenzie's sweet artwork.

What's Up June?
It's been a while since an update. Finished recording vocals and guitars with Tim Kevin for 6 tracks last weekend, we’ll finish writing another 6 tracks and start on those soon. We’ve still got a long way to go.
We've got some shows booked. Playing with our favourite Brisbane band EXTRAFOXX for their Album launch in Brisbane on the 19th of August. In addition we're playing our favourite guitar shop in the world Tym Guitars in Brisbane on the 20th of August 2pm. This will double as our EP launch as long as I can piece together the outstanding EP release related things.
The US Album is nearing release, need to finalise artwork and the dreaded… band photo, which appears much harder to organize than it should be.
Anyone keen to make a budget film clip?

Olga the Ogre - live in Newcastle - Nice Filly
Recently we went and played Newcastle. It was awesome thanks so much to Brooke and Shane for organising the show under their production name Nice Filly. As a part of the Nice Filly dealeo we performed an acoustic song which the guys have posted online.
I forgot the lyrics in the first take and hence the battery for the audio recording device on the table died halfway through but the mic on the camera held up alright.
Paul is playing an acoustic guitar we found lying around the bar with white gaff tape with Xavier Rudd scrawled across it. I'm quite sure it was his uncased cheap guitar. Craig plays boot and tambambourine. Wintah plays legs and showing a lot of them.

LITTLE LOVERS – OLGA THE OGRE
There are encounters that can change your perception of a place, of a scene, of music in general. We met Craig, Wintah and Paul on Sunday 28th February 2010 at their headline show at The Annandale in which we were lucky to sleeze a spot on the lineup.
Little Lovers brand of indie is delivered with a side of punk westernism and enveloped with a strange sense of nostalgia taking you back to the brilliance of 90’s Australian music. Each song punches you in the face like you’ve heard it before, but you haven’ t, then you find yourself singing along which gives big kudos to their songwriting abilities.
Residing in a land of skinny jeans and haircuts, their personality shines through each second of their songs, with humor and anecdotes scattered into their sets, they are always king pins of modesty. We were reassured that Sunday night last year that all was not lost in the big smoke and when coming up with the idea of Nice Filly placed them at the top of our list.
Little Lovers smells like house parties, like schooners of beer at Jets games, like summer festivals, like friends sharing Frank’s pizza, like bowling clubs.
In the dark back bar of The Great Northern Hotel they played Olga the Ogre for the Nice Filly camera and the bar staff and here is what they came up with…

Thanks so much everyone for coming along to the Annandale Show last Thursday (probably our last ever Annandale show). I feel it was a success even without my magical lighting vision… grumble grumble. A big thankyou to the Creepers, Fabergettes and Lyyar. You all ruled as per usual. A special thanks to Cam Lyons for driving the gear, I have your fishing rod and camp chairs at mine.
If you’re looking to party tomorrow night I highly recommend heading / surfing down to Good God Small club for the Atom Bombs 7” launch. It’ll be surftastic. Event details
P.s. Newtown Jets vs Cronulla Sharks - Henson Park 3pm Saturday 16/04/11 . I'll be at predrinks at Henson Park Hotel at around 1:30pm
