The late arriving masterworks of Draygo's Guilt, a 9 track album called 'Trust Me,' is available now for free download at www.draygosguilt.com
We're giving it away because we would like you to then give it away and for whoever you give it to to give it away again and so on and so forth.
All you have to do is download it and pass it on and the whole world smiles with you.
Thanks to everyone who parted with their hard earned and played with us at the weekend, we had a good night and will be doing the same thing again soon. Meanwhile, instead of playing gigs, we're promoting this single using the slightly unconventional combination of positive thought and staying in watching TV. There is slightly more to it than that but we'll be announcing shows in major cities early next year, please check back for more information.
'Pulse' will be the first single released 14.12.09 on our own label called 'Model's Own Records' - ask for it in the shops and if they don't come up with it within 5 minutes then just smash the place up. We are British, after all. We have a reputation to uphold.
The album will be available for general release on CD and 12" in 2010 with a couple more tracks and some tasteful photography on the sleeve.
Biggest and sincerest appreciation for everyone who's stayed with us and to anyone new that's getting into the Draygo sound.
Until we see you again, good luck and God bless.
Much love, dg. x

Clews we'd gig anywhere that pay us mate. But we do like to have some cash after a gig. We're supposed to be playing somewhere in watford next year but who knows, our gig bookers never tell us nowt. Anyway, you're a class act. how long have you lot been going ?
dont worry about A&R men saying you're too dark to be signed, we got that too and we've been signed on quite a few occasions. here's a quote you can use
"Blacklist" contains more energy in its few minutes of duration, than any oasis album ever did"
Nice one lads, take care and have a good gig on the 5th.
