What is going on in Nestland?

February 19 - What is going on in Nestland?

So it's all very exciting in Nestland at the moment, which is why we thought it'd be nice to get this blog going.


We've been planning to record an album for a while now, and we have been working on, practising and polishing new songs, as well as some older ones.


We've got a list of songs which we're hoping will be on there, which people may well recognise from our gigs.


Personally I am most excited by two of the new songs - Grief, My Lonely Friend and First Came The Drum.


Grief... builds towards this fantastic ending which I get really excited about as soon as we start playing the first bar, I love the way it unfolds.


But First... has probably become my new favourite of our songs. Previously and for a long while it was Lenny and Jenny, but now I've moved on. It's so much fun to play and just romps along at such a fantastic pace.


I can't wait to record these tracks.


As well as the recording itself we're talking about artwork - we're all going to try drawing things - new promo photos, and even videos. It's all fantastic.


There is one thing missing. By necessity, we're going to be doing fewer gigs, but it's well worth it to create an album.


So yes, if you look at the Live section of the website, at the moment there is only one gig listed, but that's very exciting too, tada tátà, one of the fantastic Cosy bands are coming over from Sweden to play a UK tour, including a stop in Hull and I'm really happy that we get to host them here. Ace.


But anyway, how are you doing?
