> Intimate Tour Dates Announced for October - On Sale Tomorrow at 10am
> Smoke Fairies to be joined on stage and supported by Rasputina
> "Ghosts" to be issued as a Double-CD set
 
What better way to enjoy the English Summer time than taking yourself into a darkened room for 16 hours a day and fiddling around with guitar pedals. Last month we began the process of recording our next album! We have allowed ourselves some exposure to the sun though and in our lunch breaks we discovered a field of foals next to the studio and a pub serving cherry cider and Kentish 'Hufkins'.

But our forthcoming expeditions are not going to be limited to strolls to the pony field and cherry cider runs. We are really delighted to announce that we will be embarking on a special tour this autumn, playing old Smoke Fairies songs from 'Ghosts' which will be released as a double-disc CD in conjunction with the tour.
 
'Ghosts' combines all our early recordings from 2007–08, when we first moved up to London. Like the limited edition US vinyl, released by 453 in 2010, the first disc, 'Ghosts I' features our first releases, the singles 'Living with Ghosts' and 'Sunshine' and the Frozen Heart EP. The second disc, 'Ghosts II', is made up of unreleased tracks such as Tonight, Another Night, The Road Is Long and Bones.
 
You can pre-order your CD copy now from the webshop (we promise to be more speedy than we were with the special edition red Blood Speaks vinyls)

New Live dates for October with Rasputina joining us on the road
Not only will we be touring with songs from the past, we will also be teaming up with a  band we have previously toured with.

Pioneers of 'cello rock', Rasputina will be coming on the road with us and will be enriching our songs with their otherworldy sounds as well as opening the show. 
 
We met Rasputina back in 2011 when they invited us to support them on their US tour. It's great to be able to repay the favour and even better to have them join us on stage to help bring these songs to life. Rasputina have a long history of collaboration - band founder Melora Creager, described by Music OMH as ‘an incredible, beautiful, challenging, unmissable and truly innovative performer’ toured with Nirvana on their final tour. After seeing them perform countless times on tour we can safely say we've never seen anything like the show Melora and her band create.
