TVR - 2009
After five years of hard work in the same direction it seemed as a good idea to make some changes to A Tenderversion Recording. TVR has now recruited new blood and has relocated from Gothenburg to Malmö in the very south of Sweden. Above you can see the new TVR-logo and soon we’ll have a new and improved website up.
2009 will be a lot about expanding what has been built up since 2004 but as importantly it’ll be about exploring new paths and directions to find and match different ways for different people to express themselves. Right now we don’t even know ourselves where this initiative will lead us but we know it’s gonna be a lot of fun finding out!
But, it’s not all about visions, ideas and making plans. This spring is filled to the brim with stuff waiting to happen. Scraps Of Tape has a new album coming out. It’s called Grand Letdown and is being released in Scandinavia/Europe in March and in Japan later this year. Touring in Sweden, Europe and Japan is to follow.
Both Audrey and September Malevolence are getting their latest albums released in Japan. Audrey will also head over to Japan to play the Arabaki Rock Fest in Sendai 25-26 April followed by a few exclusive shows to coincice. Europe will be getting more of their fair share of touring this spring as well. Audreys The Fierce And The Longing is getting a release in UK, Poland, Czech Republic and Slovakia and a lot of touring is being planned.
But it’s not spring yet and while the winter is still raging (or more like raining away) we’re happy to be introducing a new/old face to the TVR-family. Martin Lundmark from September Malevolence is finishing up his debut EP right as you read this. Under the name Peterbilt he plays songs in the same spirit as José González, Owen and Mark Kozelek and we’ll be happy to present it to you very soon on a limited edition 3” CD. Classy!
