dates have been altered so here's an update: Hoggboy have just finished recording their 2nd album for release very early next year. The album is going under the working title of '7 miles of love' (they don't have a fixation with numbers it's just a coincidence). New songs include current set favourites So Alone, 400 Boys, Get There, Sorry, Get Down and Lessons. The album has been recorded over the summer at 2 Fly, in Sheffield with the band producing. Richard Hawley and co-Hawley band member Colin Elliott are mixing the album at Yellow Arch. Their last UK show was the live broadcast on Radio 1 with The Vines. Since then all they've done is travel. They're planning a tour in the UK to coincide with the album and maybe even a one-off Christmas show: 1 November: Santiago De Compostela, Spain @ Santirock Festival (with Electric 6): The Ladybug Transistor 's new self-titled album is released in the United States through Merge Records on 7 October.
