-PROUD PROUD PEOPLE -

So we decided to create a blog, as we've no website yet & we're up to a lot...

We've had a busy half term, entering the Midi School studios in Salford on Wednesday 17th & Saturday 20th Feb, recording 4 tracks for an EP that'll be out sometime in April (watch this space). We've augmented our sound slightly, so joining us in the studio (alongside our producer Jonny Rathbone) was Sam Morris on drums, Michael Clay on trumpet & Lydia Clarke on violin. Tracklisting is as follows:

1. Nothing of Note

2. Scapeghost

3. Youth Club

4. Razorblade

We're more than happy with the results, check photos out on Proud Proud People's Facebook page.

We also performed our second ever gig, supporting a host of local bands at The Box, which was the fullest we've ever seen it. Save for Cody's guitar strings snapping mid-performance, we had a good one. We were also well-impressed with Swim Into Scarlet, a young band with some cracking tunes.

Upcoming gigs: 12th March in Newcastle-Upon-Tyne at The Head of Steam

24th March in Stockport at the Blue Cat Cafe

23rd April in Newcastle-Upon-Tyne at The Cumberland Arms

as always, check out our myspace for further details (www.myspace.com/proudproudpeople)

Writing has tentatively begun for a summer album...more gigs to come. If you know any venues or have any shindigs you'd like us to play, drop us a fb msg or email proudproudpeople@live.com

Keep in touch you lovely people
