Mission Creek2

We’re pretty much recovered from our month-plus spring tour, and we’ve been in and out of the studio since we got back to Los Angeles,  but we’ve got a lot of stuff in the offing, some of which we thought you might like to hear about, to wit:

A late August/early September release of our new album Hilarious Heaven in several popular formats. Not including 8-track because we can’t find anyone who still makes 8-tracks.

A West Coast tour in early August.

A full US tour in September/October.

Culminating in an appearance at the Pygmalion Music Festival.

A series of interlinked videos for songs from Hilarious Heaven (which may or may not still be a double album, depending on whether we decide that it’s worth putting out a double album, among other factors).

Other stuff TBA. Lots of other stuff. Exciting stuff. Or at least interesting stuff.

If you’d like to be kept abreast of all things Détective-related, please do not hesitate to sign up for our mailing list using the simple-as-red-velvet-cake signup form to the right of this post. We promise never to sell your email address (unless we get offered a lot of money for it) or to spam you with irrelevant news (unless we get offered a lot of money to do so).

We thank you from the bottom of our black hearts for your support over the first year of our existence, and hope that you will stick with us through our Terrible Twos.

Love,

Guylaine, James and Chris
