"THE THING'S HOLLOW" music video
Directed by Luca Dipierro
Black Arrow Studio

Based out of Chicago, IL, Blake/e/e/e (pronounced "Blake-ie") is a new project, finding two members of the Italian band Franklin Delano half relocated to the States, together with American multi-instrumentalists Davy DeLaFuente and Oren Wagner.

Their debut album, Border Radio, will be out in the US April 8, 2008 on FreeFolk Records. The band will embark on a U.S. tour right after (throughout May/June). A Europe Fall release date will soon be announced.

Border Radio is nothing but explosive. Dressed in a folky salsa, it transforms all along its length. From weird dub to house folk celestial, from Sixties candies and psychedelic space ballads to post-punk creepy anthems. From world ethnic spirituals to alt. Country, filled with drones and bones. It's Beach Boys going to church where the church becomes a mutant disco, astral instrumental, howling at the shooting stars.

A self-produced kaleidoscope of new musical ideas makes Border Radio both elegant and experimental.

Hello.

It was an elegantly campy pleasure to have met, shared a stage with, and provided shelter for the four of you.

I trust the remainder of your tour will proceed beautifully.

I deeply hope our paths intersect in the not-so-distant future.

Much love,
Christopher
