GIGS

July 2010

  • June went by real quick again, but that might be due to the fact that we went to two festivals: Sunrise Celebration & Glastonbury and of course there was the football World-Cup to negotiate in-between.
  • Work on the new album has paused - see album Blog for details
  • The CmI video (Snowflakes in June) is near to completion and Sönke will be in Germany in August, mixing the album at "Art of Music Studio"
  • Acoustic Demo CD completed and the songs have been uploaded to our new myspace profile: www.myspace.com/curfewacoustic

June 2010

  • Oh wow - it's June already...
  • All I can report is steady progress with everything, mostly the new album and the acoustic gigs/rehearsals as well the the CmI album.
  • Apart from that - summer season looks like it will be busy

May 2010

  • April was quite eventful. Some serious work has gone into the new album and will continue so through May (please see the Album Blog page for up to date progress)
  • Sönke will be spending a few days away for the shooting of the "Snowflakes in June" Video for the upcoming CURFEW meets ISGAARD album.
  • No news on the CURFEW acoustic gigs front, progress is very slow, but hopefully we'll be able to play a few gigs for you during the summer months. But on the up-side of things, looks like there's a Cello player for us now :-)
  • The INSIDE - Remixes & Edits single promotion went well, thanks to all the DJs who are supporting the release and of course to Clem!

April 2010

  • Sue and Sönke have started recording vocals for the songs on the new album - all going well and we think the OUTSIDE album is going to be gr8 !
  • Acoustic rehearsals well under way, too but it seems impossible to find a cello player..
  • Please also follow us on TWITTER and keep checking the MySpace and FaceBook profiles for daily updates and news.
  • The INSIDE video got to #2 on the MTV sponsored OurStage website during March, but the voting system was very strange and we gave up on it. BUT thanx to everyone who did try.

 

March 2010

  • Some big steps towards the new Album have been taken during Feb. Most of the songs are in a 25% finished state (some completely finished, ready to mix), the artwork has been discussed and sessions with singers and other musicians have been booked
  • We'll start rehearsals for the acoustic (and un-plugged) gigs this month and hope to play live next month or May at the latest
  • The INSIDE video has been received very well with a good number of 'hits' on YouTube as well as on other channels

 

February 2010

  • The INSIDE video is now available either check the homepage or go to YouTube where you will also find Sönkes visual version of THE OLD MAN AND THE SEA from the Inside album!! N-JOY
  • Sönke and Sue Ballingall are getting together this month to work out the songs for the OUTSIDE album
  • Joseph recorded vocals for one song of the OUTSIDE album
  • The line-up for the CURFEw acoustic gigs is complete and rehearsals for the gigs are starting at the end of February - gigs to follow!!

  • HAPPY NEW YEAR - may it bring whatever you wish for, but above all happiness and joy.
  • We might be able to help with this: Plenty of plans and new music will come your way this year (a new Curfew album, the 'Curfew meets Isgaard' album, probably a new Black|White album, too) - so here are some ideas for x-mas 2010 pressies.

2009:


December 09

  • November was busy, on the last weekend in Nov the filming for the INSIDE video happened and we had a lot of fun doing it, (see some pictures HERE \ ).
  • Furthermore more details have been put in place for an acoustic gig - for 2010
  • And the new single "INSIDE remixes & edits" has been received very well with some airplay on radio stations worldwide.

November 09

  • The INSIDE Remixes&Edits CD is finally done, (wow!!) buy it here: \ CD_BABY \
  • We are currently making the Music-Video for the RADIO EDIT for INSIDE. Filming will commence soon and the Vid should be ready by the end of November. If you wanna be in the film as an extra, please get in touch, we are looking for x-tras!

September 09

  • All the re-mixes for the INSIDE re-mix CD are now ready and we are looking for sponsors for the mastering of the CD, please e-mail us if you can donate five or ten UKpounds (in return for a free finished CD, of course).

August 09

  • oh... and 3 new songs been written for the OUTSIDE album - so all the songs for the album are complete now and after the holiday it's arranging, recording and mixing them - hope to get it all done by the end of the year :-)

July 09

  • There's a brand new song (little summer) and some remixes free to download on RESTORM, the swiss internet portal for artists. Click \ here to get there.
  • NEW to the web site: Some CD reviews for the INSIDE album, CLICK to read them

June 09

  • Some great progress with the INSIDE single. Black|White have submitted their remix and DJ RandyJ is doing a dance-floor version, exiting. The artwork is also coming along (but slowly)
  • The work with ISGAARD is going well and I've submitted 15 songs so far. We will sit down soon and record her voice and orchestra bits (and whatever else is needed) and start mixing by the end of summer.

May 09

  • OMG it's May now. Not sure what happened in April. All I can remember is a horrible coach trip to Berlin, well the gig and time Berlin made up for the coach-trip though. And going over to Germany again for discussions on the latest project "Curfew meets Isgaard".

April 09

  • CURFEW will happen in Berlin though and on Easter Sunday we'll play a "super-chill-set" on the Altar in TheaterKapelle. See links for the BLEEPFEST on the right.

March 09

  • February was a strange month. The BlackWhite album got finished (see projects) and we've started working with Isgaard in Germany, to co-write & co-produce her new album.

 

2008:

November 08

  • CURFEW to appear on BBC Radio 6
  • The BBC Newsround special about knife crime amongst kids (with a CURFEW soundtrack) has been nominated for a BAFTA award
