Next Shows, video news, EP

We are pleased to announce that we will be the special guests at the next Shadowline night at the Waldorf Hotel here in Vancouver.   Tied in with Vancouver Fashion week this is a special showcase on November 22nd.  Also in keeping with the Goth vibe of the night Combine is performing at Midnight.  A special cover song is being prepared in the spirit of the evening.

Also we have just signed on to appear at the Indie Pop Vancouver night, Dec 7th at the B-Ex on Kingsway (British Ex-Serviceman's Association).   Combine is headlining the night but we are very excited to be sharing the bill with The Population Drops, a band that I've been recording over the summer and am really impressed with!  The Rain and the Sidewalk is slated to open the night.  We are hoping to make it into an early Xmas party.

Still working on a Portland show, if anyone reading this has a good lead please let us know!

Thanks for reading, we'll have another new video soon.  The multitalented Stefan Sigerson has been editing some of our European footage and has shown us a few early edits and it looks very cool!  We will be doing some additional shooting to flush out the concept of the video - I'm certain it will be the best things we've done yet!  (Here's the interview he cut together last month for our latest release)

Our Crumbling Hearts EP had a good review in the Georgia Straight this past week.  Comparisons to Depeche Mode and OMD were pleasing to read, though I personally question the "melancholy" labeling.  Still, good to be in the Straight!
