Twittergem: Manda Rin

From @mandarin:

Is that some Bis news to announce on 24th Nov? Hmm I think so!

What? What? What is it? Tell us! Tell us!

Los Campesinos on tour

Yes, yes, LC! are heading off out. These are the dates:

Coventry Kasbah (October 21)
Southampton Joiners (22)
Exeter Phoenix (23)
Cardiff The Gate (24)
Manchester Deaf Institute (26)
Newcastle University (27)
London Garage (28)
Oxford Zodiac (29)
Leeds Cockpit (30)
Glasgow King Tut's Wah Wah Hut (31)

They really should give Manda Rin a support slot, don't you think?

Free Manda Rin

If you live in Glasgow - or can get there - and want to spend an evening looking at Manda Rin doing her stuff on March 4th, but don't want to pay: good news. There are free tickets to be had for her and Sugar Crisis at the Mill.

Manda Rin-ettes

Collateral damage: Manda Rin jinxed by Sachs suspensions

As the perplexing over-reaction to the Brand/Ross phonecall show continues to gather pace, it's the innocents what suffer. Manda Rin had gone through the Never Mind The Buzzcocks line-up round torture to help push My DNA but - because Brand is a guest on the programme, it cannot now be shown and the episode is being sealed in lead and buried in a deep storage unit under the Lake District.

Manda Record

Next Monday - you might want to put this into some sort of computer based diary - the Daily Record is streaming the My DNA, Manda Rin's debut solo album.

Manda Rin is back

Today on iTunes (next week on a record), Manda Rin has kicked off her solo career with DNA, first track off My DNA.

This is what it sounds like:

Grin for Rin

Here's good news: Manda Rin has got a date on her kitchen calendar for her debut solo album. My DNA is out on This Is Fake DIY records on September 8th. And she'll be playing The Fly in London on that night to mark the occasion.

Who wants to buy a ticket in our 'how many articles marking this release will use the phrase "unsigned band to play Top of the Pops"' sweepstake?
