Hello everyone, Tyler here, we are currently in the studio for the last time to finish off our album, Farewell Tragic Lightning Boy and thought it appropriate to let you know what's going on in our world.
So, 'All The Years Gone By' has just been mixed and it's fairly fucking heavy! It should be a storming opener. Only one more track to record and mix and a few touch-ups on the others and we're there! The album is expected (in theory) in October/November. Only a couple of years late!
In other news, some lovely people in Italy are paying for us to go play a mammoth set to a thousand locals next month, cant wait! We even get a seat on the plane each for our guitars! Rock 'n' Roll! I've been labeled 'jammy' by a few people because this will be my second free holiday of the year after my trip to Biarritz for a film festival. Well, I never win fuck all, so I'll take a free trip thank you! We fly to Milan, and the gig is two hours outside of the city. We're gonna play an hour and a half, and we've even got some (whisper) covers in place. We're also going back in January. Well, that's if we dont absolutely suck next month.
Speaking of covers, expect a special recording uploaded to myspace tonight.....a one-off, done in the live room in the studio with a room mic. Any guesses?
The new single, AMERICA, is on it's way. We've had some fantastic artwork done for us by our friend Kara (who has also done some artwork for our new t-shirts) and the single has been mastered and sounds great.
You might have noticed that some of the tracks on the page have been taken down, well, that's because we've re-recorded some and we want you to hear the new improved versions on the forthcoming album.
There will, however, be some additions to myspace in the coming days, along with the grand reveal of our new website! Keep checking thedondestars.com over the next couple of days!
There's plenty going on, and we promise to keep you posted on here, twitter, facebook, our new website and any other means, (also, check out our new wikipedia page!)
So keep checking back, and see you at Ystrad Con Club-Rhondda, Square Festival-Aberystwyth, and...Italy! :)
