CRAYONSMITH
We're delighted to say that Crayonsmith's long-awaited 3rd LP will be released in late 2012 by the label on vinyl and digital. The band will be recording the album this summer. To celebrate the fact, and to help get the necessary funds together for studio time, the trio will play a Dublin headline show at Whelan's Upstairs on Friday, July 20th. The night will have a real party atmosphere, with special guests Ginnels (Popical Island) and label-mate Owensie playing on the night, along with DJ sets from Magic Pockets & Squarehead afterwards as Crayonsmith takeover the Wexford Street venue from 8.30pm 'til 2am. There'll be opportunities to win copies #1 and #2 of the LP on the night along with plenty of other shenanigans. Check out the Facebook Event page.
