I'm afraid it was a night of some seriously red spot lights, which photographers all over the world loathe!! There are a few of each band though, and I hope you like the ones I have of you. Feel free to save them out for micepace or the likes, all I ask in return for that is creditation. But if you'd like high-res originals for any promo material, don't hesitate to get in touch and we can sort something out!
Hey! Appologies if this is the second comment we've sent you recently...bit of a mix up in the bands communication :)
Anyway.. we've been a little quiet for the last few months but we are very pleased to announce our new EP is finished and up on our myspace! It's called Bright Lights and has four brand spanking new tracks to blow your mind. Please have a listen and tell us what you think and if you love it, buy it! :)
