-----COCTEAUFEST 2009-----
Plans are already in place for the upcoming 7th annual CocteauFest! It's hard to
believe this great event has been running strong for 7 straight years now. This
year CocteauFest will have a different swing to it - it's being held in a remote,
water-front cottage location, just north of Toronto (Canada). Avid Cocteau Twins
fan, forum member and cottage owner Doug Ross has kindly offered up the use of his
cottage for the event. Please note, however, that because the venue isn't your
average night-club, space is very limited. Car-pooling will be arranged for pick-up
from a train station in Toronto to get people to the cottage. The event is
scheduled for September 19th. Details regarding ticket prices or sale dates are not
yet scheduled.

-----BELLA UNION-----
Toronto based septet, Ohbijou, have announced the postponement of their planned
Canadian tour this coming April, in support of their upcoming sophomore full-length
Beacons. The band has communicated with their fans via their website www.ohbijou.com

“Right now, there are some really great opportunities and changes that have come our
way. Unfortunately, in order to make some of those changes and take those
opportunities, we have had to make some tough decisions. As a result, we have
reluctantly had to postpone the release of our upcoming album Beacons in Canada and
the tour out west that we have scheduled for April and May. We’re really sorry about
having to delay things, as we are very excited to release Beacons! Very excited!
But, in order to move ahead with things that are going to be really amazing for us
in the long run, we have to put a hold on things.

So, thank you for being patient with us, and we are sorry if this causes you any
inconvenience. We appreciate all of your support, and can’t wait for the release and
all of the wonderful things that are to come! We’ll definitely keep you posted on
things as they unfold, and with the new release schedule as it is determined!
Thanks!”

The band also confirmed today that Beacons will be released in Europe on June 8 via
their new label, Bella Union (Fleet Foxes/Andrew Bird/Midlake).
