Hi all, Just wanted to thank all of you that turned up to see us perform our album preview show at The Dutchess in York last Friday. While it was a shame that Experiment On A Bird In The Air Pump and Not Cool had to pull out of the gig at the last minute (and we really hope we get another chance to gig with them soon), I hope that ourselves and Glass still managed to keep you amply entertained? So, thanks to you guys.. and thanks to the venue, staff and Glass for making the night such a good experience. If you'd like to know what you missed.. then you can always come see us at our Leeds launch gig on the 3rd July for the main event, London in August or Leicester in September. In the meantime, here's a charming review from Shoreditch's Prime Mover, ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) nemesis_to_go.. :) See you soon! Ed. |

Screaming Banshee Aircrew - Sugar
Well, as I'm sure you all know by now, we have a new album due out imminently.... Entitled "Sugar", it will be exclusively available for you to buy at our launch gig in Leeds: It will also be available for general sale through all the usual outlets from the 10th July. We will also be doing an extra special warmup gig in York on the 19th of June, where will be playing only tracks from the new album, many of them for the first time ever. So if you want to hear them before anybody else, this is where you need to be:  If you are coming to this gig, remember to print the flyer out and bring it with you. It will mean that you get in cheaper and we get paid more! We will be on stage some time after 7:45 so get there early! See you all soon, Jo Violet x |

SBA to perform at the Metropole, Whitby on the 24th April..
Yes, it's true..  Your Screaming Banshee Aircrew will be putting on an impromptu acoustic (well, near as you can get nowadays) set on Friday 24th April at the Metropole.. Hopefully this won't conflict with the Spa bands too badly.. this is Russian Roulette in more than one way ;) You have been warned! :) Ed. |

Further to my last post.. here's a list of all orginal SBA audio tracks (as far as I can recall.. feel free to correct me if I've missed something) released to the public: ( Behind The Cut )So that's 51 tracks... 50 if you ignore the 'Captains Speech'.. and another 10 or so to come soon ;) Ed. |

With a new album of in the pipeline... I thought it might be amusing to compile a list of all SBA releases to the public to date (excluding a few European compilation appearances that I can't remember). Here follows the product of nearly 8 years, several lineups and far too many gigs to count... ( Behind The Cut )Phew.. ;) Ed. |

Just a quick updatey thing..
Well, the frantic time is rapidly rushing towards us... we've got an albums worth of cracking material together and we're scheduled to go into the studio on the 17th March for final recordings. If all goes to plan, we're aiming for an album release towards the end of April and our launch gig in London will be occurring in early June.. other tour dates will be announced as soon as things have settled :) See you all soon, Ed. |

Memories..
A meme stolen and warped from Farcebook.. Leave one memory that you and SBA had together. It doesn't matter if you knew us a little or a lot. Don't send a message, leave a comment on this note. Next, re-post this and see how many people leave a memory about you. (Ed) |

Video Upload
Hi all, For those that may be interested, we've uploaded the Promo CD version of "Hello Mr Hyde" to YouTube. Clicky HERE to get to the YouTube site (where you can watch in high quality if you prefer). Also embedded in this post as lower quality.. That's probably it for the videos until after this year's album is released.. See you all soon, MisteR Ed. |

There's a rather good webcast of tunes here: http://www.clickcaster.com/items/episode-22--stealing-the-airwavesIt's supposedly a Steampunk setlist, but there's a rather good assortment of the unusual and left-of-centre there.. including the SBA track 'My Lovelies'. It's rather nice to hear that track again.. given that it was one of the first SBA songs ever recorded (first appearing on 'No Camping', I believe?) I think it's stood the test of time quite well. It's also never occurred to me before that the track could be percieved as a Steampunkish track.. but on listening again, I can quite see why people might think so. Shame about the mixing.. I'm just itching to de-'s' (de-ess?) the vocals... In other news, we are (predictably) a little behind in the album preparation process.. but we've already got what looks like a fantastic collection of rough demo tracks taking shape before our eyes, so it looks like we should still be on course for a release in the first half of this year. This one could be rather special ;) Also, I shall be uploading a new SBA video, this time a pretty much straight up live version of 'Hello Mr Hyde' at some point soon. Happy New Year + several weeks to you all :) MisteR Ed. |

For those who have not already heard, Tori Pink and Tina Smash have both recently decided to leave the Screaming Banshee Aircrew. We are obviously sorry to see them go, and wish them well in their future endeavours. As for the rest of us, we will be continuing with the writing and recording of our next album as planned, so it's all very much business as usual in the Banshee Aircrew camp. We will be taking a decision when the album is complete over whether we will be recruiting replacements or touring the album as a four-piece. However, one thing is for sure, SBA *will* be back, and better than ever, in the spring of 2009! Best wishes, Jo Violet x |

Leeds giggery afterword...
Just a quickie to say thanks to everyone who turned up for our gig at The Subculture in Leeds last Friday. Despite it being less than a week after Whitby and on a Friday night, the turnout was unexpectedly generous, and we appreciate it :) Also, many thanks to Paul for organising the event to his usual high standard and the other band of the night, Legion, for being such friendly people to work with. We had lots of fun :) Here's a link to some photographs from the gig, courtesy of Stuart's Photography... Only one more gig remains for us this year, our appearance at the Darkend Festival in Mansfield on the 22nd November.. and then we'll be on hiatus while we record our next album for release in early 2009. All the best, MisteR Ed. |
