So this is the first 'Kartica' blog sons and daughters! Apparently it's the thing to do these days in 'Band-Land'.... Along with having pointed shoes, effeminate looks and crap songs!.... We'll try and stick with just the blog.
There are usually many varied and interesting things going in the world of Kartica, far too many to mention, in fact whether it's rehearsing, recording , gigging or just observing how much use Josh has got out of his hair straighteners on any particular evening..There's never a dull moment... truly...truly! Over the course of these blogs we'll try and keep you on board.
Anyway, those in the know will be aware that we've been in the studio recently, and inbetween educating ourselves through copies of 'Nuts', 'Loaded'....and just for Esh.. 'Flex', we recorded Pop-Hit-In-Waiting, 'Don't You Think So'. Dave Sanderson at '2Fly' did a fantastic job on the mixing desk and we believe it's our best recording to date. It's moved us much closer to the sound we're looking to capture on record. (It's only took us nearly 3 years and a few ropey attempts but eh good things come to those who wait). We're looking to release this as a FREE download in the near future! Accompanied by a stellar video complete with dancing girls and fat-headed midgets!
Of closer importance is the upcoming gig at The Plug, Sheffield, this coming Saturday!(19th November) We're supporting our pals and fellow top Sheffield band 'Section 60'. It will be the last chance to see both bands together for a prolonged period in our hometown as we both concentrate on taking things further afield next year. Also playing are 'The Soviets', From Newcastle and local new boys 'The Conroys'. Tickets are £5 and there's a few floating about still, so if you're after them get in touch through the usual avenues.
We're looking forward to the gig as we've always had great nights at Plug. It's a great venue, the sound is always top and there's always been a large crowd. We're looking at debuting a new song if it's ready in time and freshening up the set with a couple of older numbers. So to those who are coming down, if the crowd is anything like it has been at a number of gigs this year, (which has been fantastic by the way) it should be another top night. And to those who arent.. enjoy wearing your low cut tight tops and pouting for yer Facebook pics or whatever you do!
A very wise man once said "Aggro, Aggers, Aggersby... It's a natural progression"
Peace!
