Thank you, England, Scotland, Belgium folks!

May 2, 2012 | Black Twig Pickers

Thanks so much to everyone who came out to last month's shows in the UK and Belgium. Taking Black Twig music to new places resulted in new ways to play old songs...and brought out some new songs too. We had a joyous trek --

New Black Twig 7-inch, a 'til-May Day sale, and more

April 17, 2012 | Various Artists

Folks, if you're interested in the musicks we carry for sale, think of ordering soon as we're down to just a couple copies of many of them. One that we have in plentiful quantities -- for the moment -- is the new Black Twig Pickers Yellow Cat 7-inch from Thrill Jockey.* But others will be gone, likely for good, very soon.

Here's a special offer, good through May 1: order both the Charlalambides "Rose/Thorn" and the Donald Miller Trio's "Here Below" LPs for a total of $33, a $7 saving from the usual price.

Finally, note that Black Twig Pickers will be carrying an abbreviated version of the Klang Industries store as they tour this week and next -- stop by and flip through the stacks in person....or just click here.

*with the Twigs on tour, orders won't ship until May Day.

England, Scotland, Belgium!
