BEARS!BEARS!BEARS!

hi hi hi there.

i hope you have all been enjoying this delightful weather we’ve been having as much as i have, provided, of course, that you are like me, and love gloom and cold and rain, and also the ronettes. (side bar: HOLY SHIT new phil spector remasters next week! but more on that later, maybe.)

we’ve been laying low for the past few months, working on our first full-length over at tiny telephone, drinking chocolate milk, counting down the days til the release of pokémon black & white, but mostly just hibernating, as bears are wont to do this time of year. (though it’s essentially been spring here in the bay area for the last few weeks. upper-sixties in mid february? oh, california.)

well, now we’re BACK in full force, and we’re playing a show this wednesday at the red devil lounge in san francisco! it’ll be our first time playing the rdl, and we’re all pretty jazzed about it. also on the bill are lovely lady-and-gentlemen the better maker, as well as the apparently-shrouded-in-mystery-but-probably-still-lovely axe wounds.

r.m. of the better maker has put together this snazzy flier for the evening:

in other news, our bros-4-lyfe evacuee have just put out a new album called “property type: horse ranch,” and it is the greatest thing anyone has ever done, ever. they are seriously one of my favorite bands in the bay area or anywhere. you can listen to/download both their albums over at their website or on itunes, and you can also get our ep “what i do in the dark” over at our bandcamp page, or come by the show and pick up one of the snappy cd-rs that i put together all by my lonesome.

love,

evan.
