Holding up well during quarantine, despite it feeling like Groundhog's Day.

I had listened to a pod with Brad over the summer (I think) where he mentioned working on his next album of solo acoustic guitar compositions.

Maybe that will see the light of day before COVID ends.

2 tracks are great though, hopefully we'll see some more IG Live jam sessions as well. Follow them on Insta and check in as they happen sporadically.

I have to imagine Peach fest gets cancelled at this point which sucks, i was really looking to see what The Slip were going to do.

Really enjoy Saint Cecila, the other, I'm indifferent about.

I like them both! I've heard St. Cecilia before I believe, though I can't recall exactly when. I really dig the Red Moth Solar Companion. I thought it was interesting that on the download from Secret City the file was titled "Floydtastic" and the tune is indeed a bit Floydish!

I hope they release more out-takes... still waiting for Kisses from Chelsea. Last time I talked to them about that one Andrew said that they should go through and release an album of songs that didn't make it on the first 3 albums...

Yeah Red Moth is heavy on the Pink Floyd vibes for sure.

Kisses from Chelsea
If You Leave Me
Wishbone

Trying to think of some others that have been played live but haven't been released...

I'd like to hear a studio version of "Little Lover" with the original bridge that started with "She lives in a..."

Would also love to hear whatever 27 Slip songs were "in the bag" referenced at one point, if those will ever find the light of day.

Wow, that would be great! A follow-up to "The Fall Apartment" is just what the doctor ordered. I've been hoping for that to happen.

Totally. I love that tune and was disappointed when it didn't make the cut. I remember being surprised that it didn't make Operator and again later when it didn't make Alta Falls.

Would love an album of outtakes and "lost" tunes!

OMG, how long must we wait?!? That's the grail. How many members of Canada's Parliament do we have to call/write to make that happen? Let's start a petition.... :lol:

I do wonder if those B-sides are going to be in part owned / royalties given to Andres and if that has anything to do with not releasing them. Andres departure from the band was always pretty unclear to me. I really loved his talents but I guess things weren't working out.
