We are releasing a new album and touring Europe for the first time this spring.
The latest album from My Education, “A Drink For All My Friends”, was recorded at the Bubble in Austin, Texas in 2011. Final overdubs, mixing and assemblage were completed at Headbump Studios and the Bubble in the months ending March 2012. The record is in the mastering stages now and will be released on Golden Antenna Records in Europe and on Haute Magie Records in the USA on September 28th, 2012. It is our fervent desire to tour Europe for the first time in the spring of 2013. We are seeking your help to raise funds to finance our European tour; namely, to help us buy our plane tickets! We all feel that this is our strongest LP yet and that a promotional push for it in Europe is pretty much essential. Our friends at Golden Antenna are booking shows and arranging gear and van rentals for us – now it’s your turn to assist. We have assembled an array of really nice promotional packages - all of which include a copy (or copies) of the new record- to whet your appetite. Please pick your level of support and help us out!
Cheers
