The Perseids, by The Lovely Few

Tomorrow is the last full day to get “The Perseids” for 30% off!  You should get it and listen to it on the way back from watching Star Trek: Into Darkness at your local theater.  

Remember, the discount code is “birthday” and it takes the price off at checkout.  

Also, “The Orionids” is free.  And really good.

And there’s this.

Since we no longer require these posters to help us publicize for our show (which was last night), we’d ask that you do us a favor:

GO PICK UP A COPY FOR YOURSELF!

If you notice these around Columbia, prevent littering/the wasting of a rare work, and kindly remove this from the bulletin board, take it home carefully, and put it in a place of prominence.  

Need help finding them?  Just use this map.

Also, if you see any of the 18x24 prints by The Half and Half, feel free to snag one.  They’re all in Five Points, I think, at Papa Jazz (where you can pick up The Perseids and The Orionids), Sid Nancy, and Drip.  

If you want either of these prints, and cannot find them around town, send us an email and we’ll ship you one.

You should come to our show this Saturday because…

We’ll have new merch!

The Half and Half, the group that made our packaging for Long Division back in the early days of the group, has made another beautiful work for us.  This poster, made especially for the show this Saturday at Tapp’s with Hearts and Plugs label mate Mr. Jenkins, is simply gorgeous.  And at 18x24, they’re big.  

We will also have new stickers.  The first true “The Lovely Few” stickers we’ve done, actually.  Design by Megan Elger of Apartment A, who did the art for The Orionids.


We’ll also have special Hearts and Plugs prints on sale… but more on that later.

BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE!!!

If you head over to Scene SC, like, RIGHT NOW, you can register to win a free poster, stickers, AND two tickets to the show.  You can’t beat that with a bat.  

Hurry, though, winner announced TOMORROW (Wed., March 20)!

HUGE thanks to Scene SC, The Half and Half, and Hearts and Plugs for their work on this stuff.  

See you Saturday!

Elusive Comments reviews "The Orionids."

The Brit-based blogger had lots of really nice things to say:

“great atmospheric sounds,” Try Again is called a “gloriously catchy rock song with beautiful vocal and instrumentation melodies,” and “certainly won me over as a fan.”

Glad to hear it!  We need more fans, for sure.  

I was a little confused by some statements, though:

“a new band…” is five years still new?

“…known as The Meteor Series. Unfortunately I don’t know what this series is…”

Well, it’s a series about meteor showers.  We can send you a press kit if you’d like… or you can read our blog here.  We tried to make that pretty clear.  We posted the seal in the artwork to make the covers look a little more pulp.  

We’re so grateful for all the good press, especially in Europe!  I’m going to count later, but I think we have more reviews now in Europe than North America.  If you’d like any details from us, please contact us.  We’d hate for you to publish something without all the necessary info.   

Thanks for the love.  We, like many artists, could use all the help we can get.

Please go buy The Perseids, and pick up The Orionids for free.

Today is my birthday.

And if you haven’t done so yet, please do your mom a favor and go buy one of these albums.  Or just get “The Orionids” for free… and still buy something else.

We released a new EP today for free.  It’s called “The Orionids” and we’re very pleased with it.  Go download it, have a listen, and let us know what you think.

Also, we’re having a show to celebrate.  We’d love it if you joined us.
