Team Me firststarted turning heads after making the finals inNRK P3s (Norwegian National Radio) Best New Band/Song contest. Soon after, their songs ‘Fool’ and ‘Weathervanes and Chemicals’ hit the radio in Norway while they performed in 8 Norwegian festivals last summer. The band are now set torelease their first EP on April 4th in the UK, consisting of five songs recorded in Oslo and produced and mixed by by Tom McFall (REM, Bloc Party, Snow Patrol). Expect the full length album in the fall of 2011. Lucky UK fans will be able to catch them supporting British Sea Power and The Wombats.
On March 8th, look for the new Heart Out EP from Montreal’s Winter Gloves. The EP will feature three new songs, which were recorded at the band’s hometown studio in Montreal and includes theBorn Ruffians‘Luke Lalonde adding his vocals to the chorus of ‘Paper Pile’. You of course can hear these songs live on their tour with fellow Montrealers Young Galaxy (dates below).
