On the eve of a sold out European tour, YANN TIERSEN has announced a brand new album, EUSA, out in September 2016.
The new album will comprise of 10 new solo piano pieces, each related to a specific location on the island of Ushant off the coast of Brittany (‘Eusa’ in Breton), where Tiersen lives.
The album, recorded at Abbey Road, will feature Yann Tiersen solo on the piano, accompanied only by a field recording from the exact spot referred to in the piece of music.
Tiersen explains, “Ushant is more than just a home - it’s a part of me. The idea was to make a map of the island and, by extension, a map of who I am. To begin with I chose ten locations on the island and made a series of field recordings at each of them. The pieces of piano music I then went on to write are named after these locations, and the sheet music for each piece is accompanied by a GPS coordinate and a photograph of the site site taken by Emilie Quinquis.”
Yann Tiersen embarks on a solo tour this week, the core of the spring performances will be based around Eusa, taking the audience on a journey of his island home of Ushant in Brittany.

Dear friends, family, acquaintances, fellow musicians, and especially music lovers,
The Mary Hart Attack is in deep mourning. On April 23, 2016, we found out that our rehearsal room was robbed. Eighty percent of our instruments and gear were stolen. An extension of our body has been taken from us. The police was informed, and now you too.

As a band we stick to the DIY-philosophy (Do It Yourself). But sometimes DIY isn’t enough. Now we count on you! Given the situation we are now as a DIWYS-band (Do It With Your Support).
The probability that we find our material is small. We have to get over it. How painful it might be. We are in a very bad financial situation at the moment. The deficit runs up to around 12.000 euro. We are talking about a professional drumkit, very good cymbals, terrific amps, unique pedals …
We need money. It is as simple as that. Every contribution is important to us. 5 or 500 euros? You see what you can do. We didn’t have an insurance. We didn’t expect something like this would happen.

The Mary Hart Attack
Beste vrienden, familie, kennissen, collega muzikanten en vooral muziekliefhebbers,
The Mary Hart Attack is in diepe rouw. Op 23 april 2016 stelden we vast dat ons repetitiekot leeggeroofd werd. Tachtig procent van onze instrumenten en gear zijn gestolen. Het verlengde van ons lijf is van ons weggerukt. De politie is op de hoogte. Jullie nu ook.
(For english, please scroll down)
Van DIY naar DIWYS
Als band zijn we trouw aan DIY-filosofie (Do It Yourself). De voorbije maanden stopten we veel tijd in ons eerste full album. Hier gaan we gewoon mee door.
Maar soms is DIY niet genoeg. Nu rekenen we ook op jullie! Gezien de situatie worden we even een DIWYS band (Do It With Your Support). Je kan het volgende doen:
1) Dit nieuws forwarden naar al jouw vrienden.
2) We hopen om het materiaal terug te vinden. Maar we zijn realistisch.
Concreet betekent dit dat we er financieel belabberd voor staan. We draaien niet rond de pot. We hebben centen nodig. Elke bijdrage is voor ons belangrijk. 5 of 500 euro? Je ziet maar wat je kan doen. Ga naar de crowdfunding pagina en steun ons. Je krijgt iets in ruil!
3) Hou jullie ogen open. We hebben informatie van de gestolen instrumenten en gear. Klik hier om de inventaris te bekijken, de serienummers en de foto’s. Als je zaken ergens ziet opduiken op markten en tweedehandskanalen (online en offline) mail dan alle nuttige info naar themaryhartattack@gmail.com
Ondanks alles houden we het hoofd koel en rechtop. Ook al voelen we ons praktisch onthoofd.
Verdere info vind je op onze vi.be site.
Rest ons nu alleen nog jullie te bedanken voor de steun,
Kristof, Wil en Kris
The Mary Hart Attack
An atmospheric concoction of electronic and guitar-sounds characterizes a unique style of floating elegies and driving post-punk. Caution: addictive!
That Belgium has been an epicentre of alternative music production for years, has hardly remained unnoticed to the experts, but still only few bands have managed to let ascend their hits to sustainable evergreens. Not THE ARCH, who for years have been well established on dark-wave-events with their hits “Babsi ist tot” and “Ribdancer”.
With their style THE ARCH create an unmistakable blend of energetic post-rock guitars, atmospheric, electronic dark-wave-elements, dynamic EBM basslines and touching vocals; an interplay of different ingredients, that are capable to truly mesmerize the listener. But the band is able to excite their fans not only out of the studio. The Belgians confidently present their catchy tunes on the international stages, such as the M'ERA LUNA FESTIVAL, BLACKFIELD FESTIVAL, WAVE GOTIK TREFFEN, and on tour with icons such as PETER MURPHY, THE MISSION or CLAN OF XYMOX.
THE ARCH are finally back with their highly anticipated album "Fates", which contains 13 new songs, which show the versatility of the band. "Fates" takes us on a journey to the alternative music-culture, in which the power and intensity of the interaction between guitar-driven and electronic music is once again made visible!
The album is released:
- as a 4-sided Digipack
- with a 12-sided Booklet
Bill & Murray is a Tel-Aviv based trio, consisting of David Blau (guitar, vocals), Stella Gotshtein (keyboard, vocals) & Ran Jacobovitz (drums).
What started as an experimental collaboration between songwriters Blau & Gotshtein, quickly turned into an active, performing and recording band, with Jacobovitz joining the band’s lineup in 2013.
After 2 years of activity, which included, performances all over Israel, participation in international music festivals in North America and Europe, an East European tour and the pleasure of being chosen to be the opening act for legendary synth pop artist, Gary Numan, Bill & Murray are releasing their debut album, “A New Kind of High”.
“A New Kind of High” was written, performed, produced, recorded and mixed by Gotshtein & Blau over the course of two years in all sorts of locations from pro-studios to home studios to semi-pro bedrooms and ultra pro living rooms.
Classic artists such as Joy Division, The Cure, The Stone Roses, Gary Numan, My Bloody Valentine and Bauhaus, and of course life itself provided B&M with great inspiration for the album.
Though the album combines synth-pop and post-punk influences, the bands personal touch and their non-conventional choice of musical instruments and pedal effects create a unique and distinct Bill & Murray flavor, Taste it, and experience a new kind of high.
