Exclusive: The Acorn sign to Bella Union, release album & tour all in the UK

18th June 2008

We’re very excited about this at TLOBF Towers. The ink has barely dried on the contracts but we can reveal that The Acorn, our very own loved and 20 question band, have signed with our favourite record label, Bella Union.

No finalised date yet on when the marvellous album, Glory Hope Mountain, will be released, but the band will play a set of dates between Sept 5th – 14th plus will be at the rather great End of the Road Festival.

Just to get you in the mood, they’ve also released a cover of Cyndi Lauper’s ‘Good Enough’ which is, quite frankly, so superior to the original you shouldn’t have to ask… Download below!

    and agreed, fantastic news – if only for the fact that we get to see them play some shows over here in support of it!

    can’t wait to get my hands on a physical release..although i really should have bought one from paperbag by now…
