Well hello. How are we? Well, I trust? How’s the love life? The romance? The heart swells, the breaks and the aches? Kissed any frogs lately? Heard any songs, by a toad lately? No? Then lend me your lug-holes friends, ‘cause all that is grey will be golden come this *EDIT: It’s live NOW!, for that is when The Sons’ special Song, by Toad session goes live for viewing pleasure and all out for your love…
Recorded one beautiful day in Edinburgh during last months tour, the boys played a few songs and engaged in chatter with the lovely gents that are Toad and the resulting results will be airing HERE by way of the tongue-in-cheeky-named ‘Toadcast’!
For those not in the know, Song, by Toad began as a rather fine online musical-muck spreader before dipping it’s muddy toe in the murky pond that is the record industry and transforming from simple blog-spawn to full-grown amphibious label; so pucker up and plant one on this toad’s behind and show some support for their passion and endeavour, for they are good people.
Acting as bait today, we have this rather splendid collection of snaps… Enjoy!
Ben!
Country!
T. Bear!
Marcus!

Awesome, well needed after a day of procrastination, tiring stuff! Also Marcus either has the choice of marrying me or coming back to London soon and doing another Empire gig… up to you.. That gig was well and truly immense, one of the best nights of my life, atmosphere was insane, you guys deserve all the accolade, and that it surprises you is the best bit of it all!

That was a lovely treat! I’m sure you underestimate your charm but then again, modesty only adds to that same charm.
I think I smell smoke.

What a great way to end a long day. Off to bed, hoping my dreams will unfold to a soundtrack of Mumford and Sons. Thanks guys!

Marcus Hi
Excellent music - well done all of you
If you think Dee Brown’s book is good could I recommend
“Touch the Earth”
A portrait of Indian Existence
Compiled by T.C.McLuhan
ISBN978-0-349-12291-5
Abacus Press
It is on Amazon
It is a punchier, “soundbite” book but excellent none the less. It came out at around the same time.
Keep up the music.
Best wishes
