Our album release... Bandcamp Friday T-shirt & CD deal

What's Hot
camfcamf Frets: 1175
edited September 2020 in Plug My Stuff
So I started a thread here: https://www.thefretboard.co.uk/discussion/178908/coronavirus-album-release-strategy-first-review-in-yay#latest and everyone has been really positive and supportive. But I pretty much knew it should really be here. 

Our self-funded debut album gets its release in very strange circumstances but it's already picked up a nice review that pretty much tells you what it is. "Powerpop with a melancholy edge meets post-REM Americana' seems - very roughly - to be how people are describing it. 

Anyway, my friend made this no-budget lockdown promo for the first track. We like it, hope you do too.

You can get the album from https://borrowedbooks.bandcamp.com/album/shorting-out-and-longing from tomorrow and it gets a full cross-platform release a week later on the 7th. 

Thanks guys.

    Yeah, but still, WE'VE MADE THE CHARTS! Straight in at Number 10 with a bullet. That's higher than the brilliant STEVE-****ing-EARLE! And we're next to JASON-****ing-ISBELL!!! I've told the wife she can have that guitar-shaped swimming pool that I've always dreamed about. Champagne and coke all round, chums... it's the big time! :)

    It's a real thing... specialised, but real. :)

    This has been the soundtrack to my afternoon. Particular highlight is "Gather" for me, but the whole thing hangs together very nicely indeed.

    Bought.

    I believe today's the day to buy on Bandcamp too - all monies to the artist.
    :)
    Having trouble posting images here?  This might help.

    @JezWynd Thanks sir. Honestly, at my very advanced age, it's a miracle to be on any chart, other than an alarming health related one. :)

    Cheers @thecolourbox It was one of these 'five-minutes-and-it's-90%-written' jobs. It doesn't happen often, but nice when they come along. :)

    The Bandcamp site seems to be struggling today with all the extra traffic - will get on it eventually...

    @ewal If nothing else, I’m pretty sure you’re the jazz trombonist with the best guitar and pedal collection in the known universe.

    Album-blah-blah-again-blah-blah... sorry everyone, I'm almost done being a PITA. Anyway, it's out today on all the usual platforms. If you don't mind, a follow on Spotify is a massive help. :)
