In addition, they will be releasing a digital single on November 10, 2009. “Shy” is one of the standout tracks from A Sunny Day in Glasgow’s critically acclaimed sophomore album. And “Walking Pneumonia” is the foundation for “Shy” - a Kompakt-esque minimal techno track whose looping vocals give way to a wall of washed out noise. WP was previously only available on vinyl. The single is rounded out by the band’s own remix of “Curse Words.”

1. Shy
2. Walking Pnuemonia
3. Curse Words (A Place Where We Can Hide For A Little Bit Mix)

A message from A Sunny Day in Glasgow:

Hi Everyone,
As you may know we have a new album coming out in September. We are planning to go on tour for a short while later this Autumn (dates soon!) and then for a LONG while next year, all over the world. But before we do, we need another singer to fill things out and make us sound awesome. Specifically, we are looking for a female soprano who is up for an adventure (if you are not sure what a soprano is, just listen to our songs– these are predominantly within a soprano range).

There are no geographic limits to this search– you could live anywhere in the world (seriously)– but special preference may be given to folks living in or around Philadelphia, USA or Sydney, Australia, cuz these are the cities where members of this band currently live. But really, don’t let geography stop you or your friends from getting in touch if interested.
And if you are interested, please write us asap at hello@asunnydayinglasgow.com and we can fill you in on more specifics and answer questions and whatnot.

xoxo!

if you’re in the portland area, get yourself over to holocene tonite. the battle of land and sea haven’t played a show in a while and this is a great time to fall in love with them all over. the show goes on at 8:30pm and cover is $8.

a sunny day in glasgow played at the knitting factory last night as part of after the jump’s showcase during cmj. we’d like to thank out friend jeff for asking the band to be on the bill.

the good people at stereogum and pitchfork were at the show and kind enough to post some photos.

while the battle of land and sea + a sunny day in glasgow are spending this autumn working on new material for 2009 - each have a handful of shows just around the proverbial corner.
