No matter whats going on for me on a day, it could be the best day of my life or the worst day of my life, its nice to be able to put on your music and have it enhance the experience. I've been listening to memory drawings on vinyl a bunch lately and its just absolutely wonderful.
Hope to catch you guys live at some point in the near future!

THE DRIFT aus San
Francisco(US,Temporary Residence/Cargo)
zelebrieren eine Symbiose aus verspielten Jazz-Anleihen, treibenden Rhythmen und Post-Rock Sensibilität. Mit bereits zwei Alben auf Temporary Residence (Explosions in the Sky, Mono, Envy etc.) im Gepäck kommt die Band nach der erfolgreichen ersten Tour letztes Jahr inkl. dem Auftritt beim All Tomorrow Parties Festival in England zum zweiten Mal nach Europa. Fans von Tortoise oder Jaga Jazzist werden mit Sicherheit auf ihre Kosten kommen. Übrigens spielt Danny von The Drift auch bei der legendären Post-Rock Band Tarentel. www.myspace.com/trldrift
