Northern Portrait were simply amazing here in California and it has taken us a month to get over their fantastic visit. They’ll hopefully be back over once we get the new album ‘Criminal Art Lovers’ (matcd054) in your hands. The band is still making final touches to the album mixes so watch this space in the next few weeks for exclusive soundclips and full album details.
We will also post details on the new album ‘Seconds’ (matcd053) from The Electric Pop Group and the new ‘Picture Perfect’ EP (matinée 072) from Strawberry Whiplash very soon. Both are nearly ready so watch for soundclips and release details this month.
