Andrew Bird (a personal favorite of mine) has headed out on tour with Loney Dear (a Swede!) and they've put together a very interesting split 7". This release is a limited edition of 1000, on black vinyl with hand silk screened covers, meant to be sold on tour and on the Polyvinyl website. I have confirmed that these are not yet on sale on tour, and the website has a release date of February 16th. One thing that very much surprised me was that Andrew Bird's normally thorough e-mail list did not alert me to this - it was Polyvinyl. Now for the cool part - this split 7" has Andrew Bird covering Loney Dear, and (you guessed it) Loney Dear covering Andrew Bird. I'm quite excited to hear the results and for $5, so should you.
Grab one before they're all gone...cause they will be, I guarantee it. You can chance picking one up at a show - but even if you have tix for after the 16th, why risk it?

In other Andrew Bird news, any visit the Fat Possum website lately? There's a Live in Montreal record that is just waiting to be released...
On top of that, The Mysterious Production of Eggs has been repressed on LP and you might just be able to find it in your local record store... I know I want one...
