Hello, prog friends -

Still glowing from the wonderful show last Friday (playing with the
wonderful Free Salamander Exhibit and Stolen Babies) I'm happy to
announce some other goings-on here in miRthkon land.

1. We're busily toiling getting the next album done, to be released on AltrOck records!

2. We're gearing up to play the RIO festival in France and FreakShow ArtRock festival in Germany!

3. Items 1 and 2 are happening in tandem in September, and we're thus
scraping together funds to get us (7 people and all our ridiculous gear)
over the pond and celebrate this new CD while performing various
wonderful shows to brand new audiences! We're going the kickstarter
route, which is basically like pre-ordering our new record (or shopping
for existing records, and then some) - here's the kickstarter link,
containing Wally's fun video about all this stuff:

4. As well, we have most of the tour booked, and leads on many of the
TBD dates, but hey if you think you have other great leads in noted
regions, it's always good to have a back-up plan. Or maybe you know of
wonderful places to sleep, eat, or take band photos along the way... Let
me know! Here's the current itinerary:
