We Were There Gig Scrapbook
The UK We Were Here tour starts tonight. Each gig will have a special page for our Twitter fans to share their photos and thoughts from the show - we're calling it We Were There. If you're going to the Exeter gig, tweet with hashtags #exeter and #wewerehere, and check out the We Were There, Exeter page at turinbrakes.com/wewerehere/exeter to see a scrapbook-like collection of memories from the gig. Follow @turinbrakes on Twitter or check out our We Were There pages for the hashtags to use for the upcoming gigs (and to see all the postings). Happy tweeting.
As they prepare to head off on their headline tour of the UK, Brixton Blog and Bugle contributor Jen Ewbank talks to Gale about the bands career to date and how their music has been influenced by their local upbringing.

The album will have its official North American release tomorrow, October 8, on Red River Entertainment (order at Amazon.com). Thanks to all our incredible fans for the support and spreading the word. Our UK tour starts in Exeter on 27 October. There are still tickets available for all the gigs, but with all the hype, they're selling fast, so get yours now (dates and ticket links in the live section). Stay tuned right here (or follow us on twitter @turinbrakes) for announcements of any additional live appearances, and thanks to everyone who came out to support us at our in-stores last week.
