"Brass Camel" arrives today. Turn it up loud and share it with the world 🐪
We had a phenomenal time setting up shop at Chalet Studios in the Uxbridge countryside to record the bulk of our third album mid-tour while supporting "Camel" last year. When it's funky, it's funkier. When it's proggy, it's proggier. We vocoded Taurus pedals. We tore up the phonebook until we found a real harpsichord to track with. We recorded gang vocals in an alley at 4am. We were given a tornado warning while recording a storm with a U67. This is a much rawer LP in production and mix and we feel that out of the three it best distills both our many influences and our approach to live performance into a studio record. We hope you enjoy it often.
Can't wait to hear what you think.
See you on the road 🐪

It's always a pleasure when the boys get to play two sets as it gives me more time to take video, detail shots and experience more long exposure stuff. I'm slowly dialing in my settings for more stuff like this - with no flash - so hopefully you'll be seeing more of this!

What an incredible night in Toronto!!! Thanks so much to everybody who filled up the legendary Horseshoe on Thursday night. It was a really special show for us and to see so many of you coming for your first, third, fifth Camel show...that really means a ton. We can't wait to come back!
How killer to have a new friend - the incredible @anh.t.phung - join us for a couple songs and dazzle everyone with her flute wizardry. We did "Careful What You Wish For" and then a rare cover in the form of Tull's "My God". As if that wasn't enough to make it a night for the books, our buds in @crownlandsmusic (who just released their new record) jumped up at the end of the night for a completely unplanned Zep jam. What a night indeed.
St Catharines was a fabulous and somewhat chaotic time last night and we play Ottawa tonight. Thank you so much for being on this ride!!!

Catching up on posting and sleep is tough on the road with long drive days and late nights but I be doing my best! The boys had a group of 16 people drive a round trip total of 18 hours just to see them in Winnipeg and that's pretty special!

The music video for Why Bother is now on youtube. We got cooked in the summer heat and were buried alive for this one. Hope you dig it 💀

May 8th | Show No.4
After a couple of long drive days from Nelson to Lethbridge to Regina, the boys hit the stage at almost midnight at Ohanlon's Pub as part of a pub crawl night in the city and holy moly it was bumping! Good night for a Guinness 🍺

What an awesome night in Winnipeg!!! Night four of a five-provinces-in-five-days run and it definitely delivered. Can't thank everyone enough for the epic level of support - SIXTEEN people convoyed down from Norway House, MB which is 9 hours away just for the show. Two others absolutely cracked us up by holding up these flashing signs on their phones, which might well signal Dylan and Curty's entrance into the political sphere. Lots of people knew what felt like all the words to most of the songs. This kind of stuff genuinely makes all the hard work worth it. We appreciate the hell of out it. Thanks for coming to the show and see you next time - maybe a larger stage at last?

(I didn't take photos at the Vancouver show in April as I was taking videos and that was technically the first show of tour, so unfortunately I don't have any Show 1 photos to share!)
Nelson turned UP on a Wednesday night! My favourite photos from this batch are the close ups and Aubrey's new reflective mirror on the bottom of his keyboard - it makes for some cool shots and I can't wait to see what other shots I get like this on tour!
