Wednesday, December 12th, 2007

State Bird will be releasing Mostly Ghostly on February 26. Pre-order will begin on January 1st and start shipping February. Mostly Ghostly has been having some early press roll in.

Left Hip Magazine:

“Every tune seems to unleash one brilliant surprise or another – lush orchestration that leaps suddenly to the fore, shockingly original riffs marching out of nowhere, or fascinating mixtures of the acoustic and electric. the clean and the distorted.”

Side One: Track One

“State Bird- I Saw The Light: I didn’t mention the fact that the new album has a pilgrim/indian them in the intro because of one particular reason, it doesn’t actually make sense until you hear this song. Once you do though I’m sure you’ll easily be able to imagine a bunch of indie kids skipping around and singing-a-long with this rustic jam. Or, you’ll just hear a song that is lush beyond belief and you won’t be able to picture any sort of tribal gathering. Either way, both view points will result in hands in the air and smiles on the faces. I’d say that’s all” that matters.

The Winston Jazz Routine are featured on the holiday compliation called Peace On Earth. 100 of the money for the compliation goes to Toys for Tots. So please get some winter tunes and help out some kids for the holdidays.  The comp also features songs from Great Lake Swimmers, Chris Walla(Death Cab For Cutie), Casiotone For the Painfully Alone, Cotton Jones Basket Ride, Rosie Thomas, and  many others. It is well worth the $7.
