Peeps,

Hildee here to give you a much needed update on all things Manic Bloom. After a pretty crazy weekend last week, we have settled back down nicely after playing a show at the Red Gorilla Festival in Austin, Texas. This particular fest runs along side SXSW and is never one to disappoint. We played to a packed house on the roof of a club (The Blind Pig) that's a staple on the legendary 6th Street. We've got tons of pics and hours of video footage to go through but rest assured that once we look at it all, we'll post tons of stuff for you to see/hear/feel/etc...

Onto a topic surrounded with much anticipation....recording. We have narrowed down some dates in April (13-14th and 18-19th) that we are looking at as to when we'd like to record. Well be working on anywhere from 3 to 6 new songs. We aren't exactly sure of what we'll do with these new songs (put them on a new EP, combine them with the old EP, or sell them only digitally) but we are mulling that decision over as I type this. One thing is for certain, these new songs are going to be SICK!!!! We learned a lot about the writing process when we made our EP last May, so we've been eager to see how are lessons learned will lend themselves on our future writing endeavors. You will recognize some of the new material, where the rest will be completely new stuff no one has ever heard. Needless to say, we are excited.

Also, we just put up a new shirt design on our online store. You can get one there or at any show we play. Check it out
