Smallgang have given birth to their debut album - Labours - which is available from gigs. We recorded it over winter 2007-2008 ourselves with the help of our friend, singer Alex Haynes, on a couple of songs. We think you will like it. I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)
Likewise Smallgang, you guys were awesome. Thanks again for making us feel welcome and really hope to catch you all soon. Come down to Devon, we'll put you guys on...
