Ok, really, so what are you doing for New Year’s Eve? We’ll be in NYC and you should be too. Enumclaw will be playing a full-club farewell to the Leonard St. Knitting Factory before they up and move to Brooklyn! The night is being curated by the rad dudes of Akron Family, who will also be playing the main stage with Deerhoof, The Dirty Projectors, Deer Tick and Megafaun, and others. Right on.
Enumclaw will be vibing downstairs in the old office, which will be transformed into an ambient drone zone.
More info, tickets and full line up at The Knitting Factory.
Just returned home from the Kensington post office where the new Niagara Falls record, Sequence of Prophets. was shipped off to the plant! This one’s been a long time coming, and we’re really psyched for it to drop in February 2009. We’re ditching the compact disc with this one and will be pressing limited edition vinyl with mp3 dowloads. Our friends at Apollo Audio will be handling the mp3 downloads which will come free with purchase of the vinyl.
Here’s a sneak peak of the opening track, Flatlands…

We’re also ever so pleased to announce that Geoff Bucknum (of Blood Like Mine) has joined the ever-morphing entity that is Niagara. Geoff is a master of texture and tone, and will be adding deep layers of organic, electric guitar.
There is a new-ish Niagara Falls Facebook page, with all the latest gossip. Come friend us up.
In old Niagara news, a recording that we did over the phone back in 2006 for the radio show Phoning it In, is available on their new site right here, along with a ton of other great live performances.
