Oxygen Thief supports Johnny Foreigner, releases a cd, and lives happily ever after...

Morning all - exciting times are a-coming, so an action packed update for you all.

Firstly - I'm opening for Johnny Foreigner + Tubelord on 11th May @ The Cooler, Bristol.

For those of you unaware of the JF amazingness, they're pretty much the best UK band around at the moment - huge tunes, big intricate guitars, exciting upbeat songs about going out and getting drunk...just brilliant.

Tickets are 8quid online/more on the door BUT I've bagged a limited number at a mere 5quid each - bargain or what?
If you want in, email back + I'll sort out paypal/cheques/addresses etc. It's gona be ace.

Go treat your ears.


Next up - my split CD with Ben Marwood and Jim Lockey finally has a release date: Monday 13th July.

It's a bit different the the usual split CDs in that the 9 tracks are all interwoven, rather than having our songs seperated into 3 song batches...so Ben's fragmented folk, Jim's country tinged acoustica, and my demented rantings all intermingle, copulate, and stagger off into the night together to gaze at the stars (and set fire to deserted buildings). It rocks.

It'll be available from download sites, online retailers, and a bunch of shops too (if there are any left by then). Preorder details to follow a bit closer to the time...

Songs will be uploaded to myspace etc soon, and it'll be on the wonderous Spotify as well after release, so keep yr eyes peeled.

Enjoy.


Lastly, there's a bunch of tour dates up at www.myspace.com/oxygenthief - from London's Lexapalooza in June, a few north eastern dates with Ben Marwood in July, to a 13 date UK tour with both Ben + Jim in August, I'll be rocking in a town near you sometime over the next few months.


So to summarise - come see me+JoFo on May 11th, save up yr pennies to buy the split on July 13th, and come to a tour date in the summer.

Ace - cu soon.
