Dearest Peterborough

We are so sorry we had to turn around on Wednesday. We drove for two hours in the snowy stopped traffic and only got as far as Don Mills and Eglington. We estimate it would have taken 6 hours all in to get to Peterborough. Considering it normally takes about 1.5, you can understand our predicament. Still, we were very upset. We were really looking forward to the show. A make-up date will be announced shortly.

Hopefully folks in London and Toronto and Guelph will come and make us feel better about missing our first show back. Tonight we're at Grooves and Call The Office, Saturday at the Horseshoe and Sunday at Vinyl. It would be nice to see you if you can make it!

Also, we have had lots of good (and bad) press come at us this week. Take a trip over to the Press section of this site to read them. Also, Tuesday is the big release day (but check your local shop because a little birdy told us that some stores have started selling it early).

Friends, at home and abroad

A Mountain Is A Mouth will finally see a physical release in Canada this coming Tuesday, February 3rd. We're thrilled that the day is finally upon us. If you live where we live, please come out to a show in February or seek out our record in stores. If you don't find it at your favourite record shop, please tell your friendly clerk that maybe their store should order our record from Outside Distribution.

As for folks outside of Canada, you can order the double deliver (CD+MP3) here, but we realize that it's a bit pricey when you factor in the extra postage. We ask that you please just be patient with us and know that we're working on it.

We're actively trying to find new friends in other countries that could help AMIAM spread it's wings, but it's going to take a little time. Please email us if you have any suggestions for labels or distro companies that might be a good fit.

xoxo and thanks for all the love. BP.

two thousand nine

A couple of nice bloggers have included our record in their best of 2008 lists. We are obviously honoured to be included in lists like that but we want to stress that A Mountain Is A Mouth is a 2009 release. The official release date has always been February 3rd.

We chose to release it online in December because putting it out ourselves allows us that freedom and we were sick of waiting... but we won't consider it "out" until we're actually holding copies in our hands.

So, many thanks for the write ups but also sorry to any bands that may have been robbed of a spot on these lists because of our impatience and disregard for traditional release schedules.

xoxo
