Noah and the Whale
The First Days of Spring Free MP3

Article written by Paul M - Jul 4, 2009

Noah and the Whale

Today's free MP3 is the title track from English folk popsters Noah and the Whale with the track The First Days of Spring. The album's out on August 31st.

A post on their site gives an update:

I'm very pleased to announce that the first screening of the film and album 'The First Days of Spring' will be at Latitude Festival. This is the third consecutive year that we have performed at the festival in some way, shape or form and it is always an absolute pleasure. A firm festival favourite amongst the band.

We are very excited to announce that pre-orders for our new album will be available from online retailers this week. Here for the first time is the artwork, provided by our very good friend, the photographer James Robinson. James has been with us on a variety of locations since January, when recording began, and we are pleased to announce that the record is accompanied by a booklet of photos which chronicle the project to it's completion.

Last night in the land of soaring spires, underground libraries, and subterranean railways, Noah and the Whale were due to debut the first screening of The First Days of Spring at the Oxford Union. Sadly we were beset by technical difficulties five minutes in, and film makers the world over shuddered unknowing as to why, when our DVD began to sporadically skip, with repeating persistence. After several attempted rescue operations, involving excessive wiping, two laptops and a bevy of what must have been some of the finest technical assistance in the country, we faced the student throng and proceeded in an unprepared question and answer session.

Thankfully hands kept rising for over forty minutes, as we fielded questions on topics as diverse as the state of the music industry, through to correcting the misconception that our new record was electronica. Despite the outcome not being what we had planned, the evening was a pleasant change to that of our normal night time engagements, in the period which is now recognised as Festival Season.
