Get Your Crayons Out!!!

News and EP Artwork Competition!

We have been locked away in Cellar Studios for the past two weeks laying down demos for our next release, tentatively titled 'Se Débrouiller.' We've recorded a lot of tracks and will be recording a lot more in the weeks to come, so look out for little sneak sonic peeks in the future.

We'll be back in the studio after our upcoming tour (more details on that coming very soon) to get the job done all proper like. We're pencilling in, very lightly so it can be erased easily, an early July release/tour.

The Competition!

We are running a competition for the cover of 'Se Débrouiller' with some spiffy prizes going to the winner!!!

All one has to do is send us an email (arrowinthesky@gmail.com) with ones cover design idea before the 1^st of May.

We will then pick the best cover and hand the prizes on over!

The pieces are starting to fall into place...

According to Plan

I guess things don't always go that way!!!

Back in October, we were planning to keep ourselves as busy as possible right up til the end of the year. Then Shayne moved to Carlow. Then my girlfriend went and had a baby! So we decided to cool the jets until 2010 and make it a year for arrow.

Allow me to present my little baby Emma;






So everything I said in October will now begin!

Welcome

Here we shall blog, podcast, whatnot, etc, et. al.!

Right now Shayne is in Ballinasloe engineering sound at a festival. Brian is in Athlone playing with Darragh J. And I'm sitting at a computer typing...

Just watched 'Fireflies in the Garden', I had my doubts but it was actually quite enjoyable really!

Where we are at
The plan at the moment looks like this:

We've got enough cash moneys to print up the next batch of eps. It'll come in a lovely digipack with new artwork... Maybe!
Once that's printed we'll have it in a select number of stores and obviously still sell it online and at gigs.
Next we'll be doin an Irish tour, something like the last 17 days straight, or maybe a little less and more spread out.
Then we'll look at playing some English dates.

That should bring us up to the end of the year when we'll turn our attentions to recording number two... We've got stacks of new material, some demoed, some not.

Keep checking back for more as it happens!

Conor.
