Hello Again,
New Album Release Date:
Fair bit of news for you today. We were on Radio 2 with Mark Radcliffe and Stuart Maconie the other night. They highlighted the fact that we're releasing All The Plans on the same day as U2 are putting out their new record. They suggested we call Bono and toss a coin for who moves their release date. He called heads and it was. Our album is now out on 9th March and Tell Me It's Not Over will be out on 2nd March. Sorry to make you wait a week longer. We hope it's worth it. To hear the show via BBC's listen again click here. The timings were kindly posted on the messageboard. Thanks QNick.
On The Radio:
Staying with radio, James went into Absolute to record some tracks and have a chat last week. This will be aired in two parts on Geoff Lloyd's Hometime Show the first session on Monday the 19th January and the second part on Wednesday 21st January. You can listen and watch via their website.
UK Tour Support:
We're pleased to announce that support for the UK dates will be Pete Greenwood - and The Parlotones. Pete will also be playing guitar with us in our set – you may have caught a glimpse of him in the Hard Rock London footage. The Parlotones are the South African band that looked after us so well on our recent visit there.
Vote for 'Tell Me It's Not Over':
Our new video will be a 'Hot New One' on the MTV2/MySpace chart as of Monday 19th January. Please vote for it by clicking http://www.mtv.co.uk/myspacechart
Album Pre-Order:
You can buy the deluxe version of the album via our site and receive a free download EP instantly. This includes the album version of Boy In Waiting and three exclusive non-album tracks. The deluxe version now has a confirmed tracklisting, including the brand new acoustic song, Merry Go Round.
New Website:
Last but not least, we're launching our new website today. There are bound to be a few teething problems but we hope you're happy with it.
There'll be more news next week, but for now we hope you all have a brilliant weekend,
Stel, Ben, Baz and James

Like the new site, really fresh and colourful and the new photos are really good, really atmospheric. I like the ones in the diner/cafe. |

Agreed. I can work out Hendrix in the background, and think Aretha is also there.
The new pictures don't beat this one circa 2005

Well having waited 3 years what's another week?! Now I can ingest No Line on the Horizon first and then enjoy All The Plans.
The new site looks really swish, I like it.
