We got the final mixes of our upcoming "Time and Pressure" EP, and we are really excited with how they turned out. There is no official release date yet, but expect it to be available in early June.
Europe bound! Details are still getting hammered out but it looks like we will be back over in the old country in November 2012. I hope they don't run out of beer before then.
Back on tour: The Shell Corporation is back on tour for the month of April. Starting in Santa Maria, we will be playing the Way Out West Fest 2 in Tuscon, AZ before heading north to Denver, Ft. Collins, Boise, and Portland. See our
shows page for details.
We have several excellent "local" shows coming up, in Hollywood, Alhambra, and San Jose. Hey, San Jose is local if you happen to live there.
We will be back on the road again starting April 10th. We are still solidifying some dates, and there may be a surprise or two, but we will definitely start the 10th in SLO before heading through the southwest to play Way Out West Fest in Tuscon and beyond. Hope we see you there!
Most bands would scoff if they were asked "can you have two unreleased tracks written and recorded in a few weeks". Not The Shell Corporation, for we are made of sterner stuff. Watch this space for more information on the four-way split with Gunner's Daughter, Abolitionist, and Gameday Regulars.
Solidarity Recordings has asked us to arrange and record a Go-Go's cover for their upcoming tribute record. We are going into the studio this weekend to record it.
We are just about set to embark on our
Southwest US tour. We kick it off in San Francisco Wednesday, February 1, and from there go out to Texas/Oklahoma and back home. Yes dad, we have chains for the van.
We are currently booking a short March weekender to be followed up with
a longer tour in April which will take us all the way to the east coast and back. Stay tuned for more details.
The Shell Corporation has joined Solidarity Recordings! Solidarity will be re-releasing our debut album "Force Majeure" on 12" vinyl. It will be out in March/April.
