We are currently booking shows for our bike tour in the UK and Ireland! September on!
If you would like us to play at your favorite pub, squat, living room, coffee shop, etc, get in touch and we'll see what we can do.
At the moment Magpie is playing glockenspiel, saw, and pandeiro, Tovio is the accordionographer, Sarah is the tap dancing mandolinist and Tim is on double bass.

The Calliope of the Future
These are the cds we have released so far...
Holding Mecatol Rex- 2009 EP, powerful ballads regarding the American Dream and Science fiction writers. And the apocalypse.
Calliope of the Future - July 2008 Release. American Dream? Love shorn off the back of wayward lambs? Life is truly a fucked up fairy tale. Hand printed packaging
Casa del Vento -January 2008 release, buoys of sound, imagined and visited places, fairy tale disillusionment. All packaging is hand-printed.
Songs About Birds-2006 EP, somber lullabys with bird cries in the background. All packaging is hand-printed.
And if you have naught better to spend your time doing, 'tis possible to maintain oneself up-to-date with COTF's misadventurous meanderings by reading the blog (calliopeofthefuture.blogspot.com) or, if you prefer 3D media, www.youtube.com/clownfragment

It sounds like you are having some great adventures...lovely. So I am okay with not having a post card however I am still waiting on the damascus sword, it might be really heavy to send by post so I would understand if you need to just hang on to it for now
