December 12th 2009 sees the regional launch of mushi mushi’s long awaited album “sequins save lives” on distraction records. The album’s not available to the rest of the country/world until February 2010 so it’s a chance to pick one up early before they obviously all sell out. This will also be one of the last chances to see the mushi s live because they intend to call it a day early next year.
Two of the finest bands in the north east, the guessmen and the bubble project will be also performing. see ya there. Hooray!!!!
