New Hiawata! EP out this spring!

In october last year Hiawata! entered Kenneth Ishak's studio with a bunch of new songs that resulted in the 5 track EP Blacks On Blondes. They finished up the recording and mixing in February and it was mastered yesterday. It sounds amazing. Hits all over the place and lots of guest appearances by Kenneth on backing vocals and lead guitar. Kenneth does a mean j.mascis impersonation here!

So when will this 5-track wonder be out, and when can you hear some tracks? Well, we'll upload some tracks to our myspace when we've got the cover art, and we're aiming for a May release. There'll probably be some shows around that time as well.

If you're wondering what Hiawata! looks like when they play live you can check out this lovely photo from a show they played in Bergen last week or so.
