Sinkane, a band we’ve written about in the past, has told me that they will be releasing their debut album, “Color Voices,” in Spring 2008 on Emergency Umbrella Records. I’m really happy about this.
Ahmed, the man behind Sinkane, is one of the best musicians in town. I’ve spoken to him a lot about his band over the last few months, and he seems seriously interested in getting his music out to people — touring, promo, etc etc etc. Going on Emergency Umbrella is a good fit. The label has put out records by lots of really good bands like Foundry Field Recordings, Bald Eagle, and Warhammer 48K.
Locally, you can catch Sinkane on New Year’s Eve at the Weightless Records party with Blueprint, Envelope, and Zerostar. More details here.
