Augie March have made a four track download available for the minor inconvenience of signing up to their newsletter (just go to the official sign following the link below). Very nice it is too, especially lesser known ‘Mother Greer’ and older track ‘Sunstroke House’ from the Strange Bird album. Get it while it’s hot.

On a particularly puzzling, frazzling day involving a fried band and crew, the buzz of new promise in a big land, long-haul sleepless dementia and a 9.3 on the Collective Minibar Hangover Scale, the band tumbled out of a brown 15-seater and into a famed Los Angeles studio and sublimely leant into a semi-acoustic concert, straight to tape. It came up great, unsurprisingly, and it is now available as free download. Tracks are the ubiquitous ‘One Crowded Hour’ (featuring a sleep-deprived Boxer blasting a dynamic harp solo), ‘Cold Acre’, ‘Mother Greer’ and ‘Sunstroke House’ (featuring Dave on uke). Wont be available forever, but it’s yours and its free, hope you enjoy it.

They’re currently in NZ working on their fourth album outing and trying not to trash the Finn Brothers studio. God speed.
