Christmas news!

Thursday, October 19th, 2006

Remember me hinting that we had a surprise in store for you? Well, in a few weeks time, you’ll be able to listen to it! Razzia Records (record label from heaven, also known as the label that signed yours truly) are putting together a compilation of Christmas songs called “Oh no… it’s Christmas!” Our contribution is called I-Pod X-mas.
I won’t tell you anything else about it except that I’m rather pleased with the line: “They say there’s supposed to be three wise men. Well, I’ve been searching, and I haven’t found a single one.”

Good news for Glasgow, bad news for London

So, we thought we’d do a small autumn tour. We call it HS - The Luxury Tour. The Luxury Tour consists of 5 shows. 1 is left to be done - on Gamla Teatern, Östersund this Friday.

Luxurious features on The Luxury Tour:

1. We now have a brass section with us: Per-Olof (saxophone) and Jesper (trumpet). Let’s call it HS 2.0
2. We have requested vegetables chopped in pieces. With dip!
3. We have brought a sound technician, our friend Magnus . Oddly enough, he’s the sharpest dresser of us all, so if you come see us in Östersund, maybe you’d be better off to look at the mixing table instead of at the stage
4. People pay a lot of money just to come see us play, so I even changed strings on my guitar

The Luxury Tour - FAQ

Dear HS. What are the names of your new songs and where can I listen to them/read the lyrics/download them/mock them?

Dear… you. You can’t. These are just a few of the songs I’ve written lately that we decided to play even though I know it’s boring to listen to new songs. They are called: Anna (the one about the future daughter), I was definitely made for these times (the upbeat, Motown-esque one where I conclude I would be worthless if I was born 100 years ago because I can’t cook or sew, but I can, however, make a mean daquri AND quote all of High Fidelity), I fold (the one I sing to Maia), and X telling me about the loss of a dear friend at age 15(the somewhat disgusting one).

Dear HS. Give me the telephone number to your brass section.

No.

oh my Lord we had such a good time in Tokyo thank you for having us we started wondering if maybe everyone has been mistaken and heaven is actually on earth, why wouldn’t it be when there actually is a place where everything is beautiful and even the soda bottles are pretty and the food tastes like heaven and you can go out for karaoke and sing until your head hurts and everyone you meet are one of the best 10 people you’ve ever met and
