Question : What is cooler than a cassette?
Answer : Nothing!
Electric Cables is released today on a limited edition cassette by Burger Records of Fullerton, California.
There is a total of 300 copies, available here at the wonderful price of $6.
Get one while stocks last!
*I would like to thank Darren and Brent Rademaker, all the guys at Burger Records, and the good people at Domino, for making this cassette happen. So cool!

Lightships in Easterhouse!
Delighted to be asked to be involved in this year’s Eastern Promise at Platform on Friday 5th October. I was there last year with The Pastels on a really memorable night with To Rococo Rot. It’s a fantastic venue, and a crucial local facility on the outskirts of the city.
Tickets for the show/festival are available at Monorail, Tickets Scotland, and the Platform box office.
As noted, Eastern Promise has a return bus service leaving from Mono on both nights of the festival. Departs 6.30pm. The return fare is 4 pounds.

Lightships will be playing at Stora Teatern, Gothenburg on Saturday 11th August as part of this year’s Way Out West festival. It’s a club show which is accessible with festival wristbands/tickets.
I believe we’re on stage around 23.30.

Lightships will be playing at the Øya festival in Oslo, Norway on Friday 10th August around tea-time (18.35).
After we play, we get the chance to sit back, relax, and watch Lee Perry, Max Romeo and The Congos take the stage. Pretty cool friday night!
