SOFT MF OPENING

Noot d' noot's very own Bimbi Garraux (performing as Mathis Hunter) has finished recording your 2010 psyche-rock opus, just in case you were wondering where it was. Check out the poster/album cover by Squanto (what a babe!) and be at the EARL March 5th for a helluva time.

Rumor has it Petrichor Inc is putting the final touches on the video for the album's lead single, Gathering the Hopeful Gamblers. Even more rumors have it that Stephen Key, head animator at Petrichor, will be celebrating 30 years on this blue marble come March 5th. Get got damn down!

Oh, here's some more press I wrote if you like reading...

Atlanta musician, art historian, and purveyor of fine goods Mathis Hunter(born Bimbi Garraux) has put together a solo record that may just surprise you. Sure, you were around for Seventy Spacebird, all the way until the Good Friday Experiment shot through your brain like the bottom of a pail breaking through. You watched him sit in the studio and on stage for a stint with the Selmanaires. These days, you've been known to drop your inhibitions (and your pants) at a Noot d' noot show or two. But this here SOFT OPENING record delves into that cannibinoid-infused corner of your psyche that you forgot existed.

Come on out to the EARL and witness this briskness while your lady gets freaky on the dancefloor. Mathis Hunter performs tracks from his solo effort, SOFT OPENING (Shakedown Records), alongside a grip of Atlanta's familiar rock n roll melted faces.

Upcoming Sessions

As for Noot, the band will be back in the studio on February 20th at The Living Room to work on the follow up to last year's "Cash For Gold." The group has enlisted super-producer Ed Rawls to engineer the record. Other than "Fingers Like Steeples," all Noot tracks have been engineered by the group themselves, so we can expect a drastic change in the sound of this LP.

The material will be culled from the tunes featured in the band's live performances over the last year, and therefore may more closely resemble the Noot d' Noot live experience. More info as we have it. And hopefully, a Soft Opening test press tomorrow.
