In the midst of a heavy touring schedule and sometimes releasing a few records with A Death In The Family, Conation, Fear Like Us, Tyre Swans & Ribbons Patterns, Jamie slowly assembled his first solo release. Recorded in 2009 during the brief quiet periods, it wasn’t until Autumn 2010 that the entire mixing, mastering + artwork process could be fully completed. Thieves heralds a beautiful progression in Jamie Hay‘s catalog, anchored by his trademark vocals and haunting undertones.
Thieves is available on iTunes now. The 7″ vinyl should be up for grabs (fingers crossed) late July, featuring some nice thick vinyl, hand-numbering on a matte-finish jacket and free download code. While the 7″ itself will feature two songs, the download code + iTunes includes three songs (two from the 7″ + the bonus digital-only song One More Lament).
You can listen to the title track now on Jamie’s Myspace page.
