Fall Euro Tour

Jason, Ian and I have started trio rehearsals for the European tour in October. I have to say it’s really sounding incredible. We’re trying to play as many different songs, new and old, as we can. We learned Heated Pool and Bar yesterday. I hope everyone’s summer is wonderful so far. Isa’s in France, and I’ve thrown myself back into Tiny Telephone and the next record.

I Want To Rock And Roll All Night (And Part Of Every Day)

We are coming to your town. Tour officially started last night in Merced, CA. It was epic. I am very inspired by this new line up, Matthias, Ian and I are playing as a quintet adding Sylvian on guitar and Jamie on bass.

We need merch people in the following cites: Pittsburgh, Iowa City, St Augustine, Orlando, Gainesville and DC. We’ll comp you and a guest in to the show and ply you with either: a) organic juice blends (yummy) or b) alcohol. How could you lose? Email adam@billions.com if you want to do it. Thanks everyone!!!

Own a piece of the Romanian Names master tape, and other things record-related

Much info today about the new record! First, if you pre-order Romanian Names now on CD or LP, you’ll get an immediate download of the album right then and there. How’s that?! Good, right? If you’re one of the first 100, you’ll also receive a limited-edition, letterpressed wallet containing a small snippet of analog tape, which contains unused music from the master recording of Romanian Names, straight off the Tiny Telephone cutting-room floor. The music on the tape is yours to do with as you will. If you come up with something interesting, please do send it over for inspection!
 
Pre-order: Romanian Names CD & LP.
 
Here’s a second song from the album you can download now for free. "Too Much Time" is one of my favorites from the record, we did a great version of this one with the M*M Orchestra at Great American earlier this year, but this studio version is really holding up for me.
 
Download: "Too Much Time"
 
Finally, lots of new tour dates are up, and we are so happy to announce that The Tallest Man on Earth will be sharing the bill with us most every date of the tour. We’re also doing shows with the Morning Benders. Tickets are on sale now for all of the shows. We’re bringing a 5-piece band, and rehearsals are starting to sound fuckin’ good.
