Rockeweb has just posted a review of "Leave Your Friends And Family", written by "Rock Engh Roll" (hence the title), giving us five out of six guitars. Better late than never, at least when he's so nice to us.

Our friend Kjetil Gudem once again stepped up and snapped quite a few shots of us at John Dee on Friday. And they are nothing but fantastic! Then again, it was a fantastic night, so why shouldn't they be?

Also, we're playing in Even's and Bosse's home town Larvik, at Café Passagen, July 3.

Yes, we're coming to Bergen tomorrow. Hulen, to be precise, and we are very much looking forward to coming back. We haven't played in Bergen since we supported Saint Thomas at Kvarteret. 

They charge 110,- at the door, and there's a band called Oh Little Sangman supporting us. They'll probably start around 10-10.30. Be there, we will.

And then, on Friday, we're back in Oslo, at John Dee. It's almost like a mini-tour. This time our good friend Einar Stenseng and his band will be supporting.

See you there

Morten, humming that old John Martyn song:
Over the hill
He-hey, hey, over the hill

Our itinerary for the summer is starting to fill up:

June 4: Hulen, Bergen
June 5: John Dee, Oslo (tickets)
July 9: Vikedal Rootsfestival
July 18: Slottsfjell festival

...and there's more to come

Also, our fabulous video has been picked to screen at the Norwegian Short Film festival in Grimstad this summer. Hurray for Iram! Her short film, "Skylappjenta" is also appearing, and it features music by Even (with some autoharp noodling by me).

It has come to my attention that the good people over at Musikkoperatørene, our distributor, has managed to get Leave Your Friends And Family onto Spotify.

(In case you don't know, Spotify is the new "sliced bread" in music these days. Easy, legal, free, everybody's talking about it, and since it now also features The Captain & Me, it has everything you want. (Ehrm, we're working on getting Automata on there too.) Ask your friends (and family) for an invite.)

It may seem a bit late, but popmatters.com has just published a very thorough and flattering feature from Bylarm a couple of months back. On page 4, there's a nice mention of us, and even a picture. There are even more pictures in the gallery.

 I think of myself as an apt googler. On one of my raids, I came across a review at German site Nordishe Musik. My school German isn't all that great, so I didn't understand that much. But I enlisted my girlfriend (who teaches German) to translate, and it seems like a nice review.
