02. Oktober 2009 A Fistful Of Songs out now
Our brandnew CD "A Fistful Of Songs" has been released in Switzerland.
On October 9th the record will be released in Germany, Benelux, England,
Austria and Italy.
Some impressions of the grrreeat cd-release party:
Last weekend we played the Zwarte Cross Festival in the Netherlands.
This is a completely crazy event with more than 132'000 people during three
days. It's not only a huge rock-festival, no it's the biggest motocross
in Europe as well.
We hit the stage on Saturday night at 10:00 pm. Not a bad time at
all.... 9'000 dutch folks were ready to party like hell and they did. So
this whole trip was a nice adventure and lots of fun.
In about one month we will release our third CD "A Fistful Of Songs".
So send your pre-order right now!!!
Listen to the news songs, just start the player on the right side.
Besides that we made some brandnew press pictures. Check it out:
Long time no see! Currently we finished the recordings and the mix-down
for our new album (coming out in September). Besides that the
festival-season has begun. It's been a very nice night at the Hoch-Ybrig
Open-Air in the deepest valleys of the highest mountains in bloody
Switzerland.
Most of the summer we gonna tour within Switzerland, because they pay
much more. Ha ha ha.
But we also will play at the
Zwarte-Cross
festival in Holland on Sat, 25. of July. Maybe we gonna play two other
shows in Benelux before. To make sure, visit our tourdates from time to
time.
In the meantime check out the brandnew picture-galleries !
Take care, enjoy the summer, ride on

24. November 2008 Touring, Shopping, Watching
We just finished a 9 days tour through
Germany with The Carburetors (NOR) and the V8 Wankers (GER). This were
probably the loudest, fastest and most rocking gigs in the whole SLAM &
HOWIE history. But it worked. We had a blast.
Please go and check out those band's websites !!
Finally you can buy our brandnew record "GUILTY" on iTunes as well. Go
and buy this damn thing !
A few weeks ago we've been invited to a music show on swiss television.
Besides an interview in swiss-german that you won't understand, we
played our radio-single "Walk away" in a nice acoustic trio-version.
Check it out:
In one week we gonna hit the road again
and we will play 6 shows in Italy.
See you there.

success and we had lots of fun.
Check out the brandnew
videoclip for "You ain't free (if you are hobo)".
The perfect clip for all the tv stations all over the world... ha ha ha
You ain't free (if
you are a hobo)
1st October 2008 Everything's NEW
Well, well, well...
Hours after hours I worked on this brandnew website. Had no sleep during
the last days. But it's worth the trouble...
You'll find lots of new features such as a nice store, tons of new pics
and last but not least you can listen to our new songs.
Friday, 24th of October our new record "GUILTY" will be
released in Switzerland and in the rest of Europe. So go to your
favourite record store and buy this thing!! Or download it... but then,
you'll miss the fancy digipack !
We gonna play a
shitload of gigs by the end of the year. In November we gonna tour with
The Carburetors (NOR) through Germany. I'm anxious to see if the
Norwegian really drink like crazy bastards!
In December we will come back to bella Italia for one week. Mi piace di
parlare un pò italiano e gli altri del nostro gruppo non capiscono
niente...ha ha.
So, we hope to see you
guys somewhere on the road.

12. August
2008 Summertime
Long time no update... sorry folks, my fault.
We spent the last weekend in Spain or let's say in Basque Country.
It's not the same....
We flew down with our guitars and hats and played two crazy shows. It's
alway a big, big pleasure to play in front of such a fantastic crowd.
Mila esker
In mid-July we played at the well known Gurtenfestival down here in
Berne. Since I'm a teenager I dreamed to rock this festival. A local
tv-station joined us and made a fine report. We had a great day and lots
of fun. The weather was beautiful, the hill packed with lots of
people. Thanks for your big support !
For the festival-shows an additional cowboy joined the crew. Our
old-time friend and spare-guitarist "Ross the Red" did a fine job on the
guitar, banjo and the lapsteel.
All the best & ride on
