1st DevilDuck album 2012 by ADAM ARCURAGI

Almost two months are already behind us but tomorrow the first DevilDuck album in 2012 is being released. It's by artist ADAM ARCURAGI and is titled "Like A Fire That Consumes All Before It" - to explain what this title is about would take a little longer, but it's kind of a painting by AA favourite painter.

The first single is called 'Presidents`Song' and you can watch it here:

Talking To Turtles are touring their "good life" again

With happiness and the "About Songs Christmas Tour" the year had an end for the Turtles and before they're touring a lot outside Germany in 2012 they're having 12 (!) more shows coming up in February - some as a quartet, some as a mash up with Danish band LET ME PLAY YOUR GUITAR. In addition they're showcasing on this years Eurosonic festival in Groningen next week at "Visions" party.... - all dares can be found under "on stage".

We can also celebrate the first official Talking To Turtles video for 2nd single 'Wonky Cradle' soon. No way for the Turtles to be called inactive or "having a break" because "Oh, The Good Life" is going to be released in the BeNeLux and after touring there beginning of March they're heading to the US again playing SXSW and a couple of shows with   Adam Arcuragi.

Talking To Turtles in USA

Unbelievable, but from Tuesday on we're spending four weeks in the USA!

First they're doing three shows at this years SXSW festival in Austin (Texas) where only 1.500 are playing within four days and believe me the Turtles are a little nervous, but of course I'm not because it's my 7th time at this great festival....sounds a little arrogant though, doesn't it?

After that we're going to Seattle (!) to record the new album for about three weeks. We don't have an album title yet, but it is going to be released August 19 and that's for sure. Keeping your fingers crossed that everything is going the right way and of course you can be a little with us on their myspace page, at www.aboutsongs.de and www.roteraupe.de.

Mattias Hellberg on tour with Kristofer Åström

As some of you may remember MATTIAS HELLBERG released his solo album "High In The Lowlands" last year, but only came in to play very few shows to play songs out of it, but this is going to change now. KRISTOFER ÅSTRÖM is coming over to play some shows to introduce his new album and what does make more sense than bringing his good friend HELLBERG with him as support? 

Maybe some of you don't know the album already, but you can see the funny video for 'Oh No' here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3CjlQviSsPM 

You find all tour dates under "on stage" again and it's not that few...

Björn Kleinhenz on tour with new album!

Unbelievable that April is already gone, but this at the same time welcomes BJÖRN KLEINHENZ back on tour with his new album called "Djago Brak", which by the way will be released May 27. This means you guys not only have the chance to see him as a trio live playing new stuff, you also have the chance to get the album four weeks prior to the official release - the new world... 

KLEINHENZ recorded "Djago Brak" in only 26 hours in Göteborg and is playing all instruments by himself except the piano on 'The Paw of Death'. What he says about the album title? "I woke up in the village Lur in Southern Sweden in October last year after a very heavy night of drinking and found the words "Djago Bråk" in my notebook. The first song of the album was also written that night."

DevilDuck with new webpage

Hard to believe that we're now talking about the word "relaunch", but after 7 years of DevilDuck Records a new look was more than neccessary and I hope that you like the new design as we do.  Of course you'll discover some changes and some things new to discover, for example Nicole is now taking care of DevilDuck Booking, but more news on this soon. 

It will definitely be an eventful year 2011 for DevilDuck and the starting signal is coming from our new UK band SCAMS with their debut album "Rewrite Fiction" Match 18, followed by new albums from BJÖRN KLEINHENZ (May), MATTIAS HELLBERG (June), KID DAKOTA (July) and TALKING TO TURTLES (August).
