Garage-Folk Duo
Remember last year when we released a collection made up of a new song and some covers of tunes written by friends of ours called Hot Air Balloons EP?
Well, it’s finally available on Bandcamp for those of you who want to buy the individual songs (we still recommend buying the whole shebang from Zunior.com for only $2.22, as it all goes to support the Daily Bread Food Bank).
Want our version of The Burning Hell’s “It Happens In Florida” for your very own? Here it is for only $0.99!
Our new album is finally out today! We’re really proud of Tortoise and appreciate all your support. Here are a couple quick snippets from around the internet:
“Blending folk tradition and rock embellishments, the duo’s subtle and charming tunes are perfect for relaxed, summer afternoons in the backyard.” – Quick Before It Melts
“They are more than a boy / girl folk duo. Loops, noise, more upbeat melodies and the sage like production of Andy Magoffin make Tortoise surprisingly invigorating and danceable.” – Herohill

If you can’t tell, we’re incredibly excited and appreciate any help spreading the word. Thanks guys!
Welcome to 2011, folks. We’ve got some big plans this year (including a new album in the works), but for now just a quick post to let you know that our most of our music is now available via Bandcamp.
Let’s get one thing straight though, Zunior is our store of choice. It’s the most artist-friendly place around with an amazing catalogue and the full Hot Air Balloons EP will remain a Zunior-exclusive.
That said, if you’re not inclined to create a Zunior account (and take advantage of the awesome bi-weekly free samplers), then you can now get …Makes Ghoist Noises and the title track from the Hot Air Balloons EP at Bandcamp as well.
Of course, we’re also on iTunes, emusic and probably torrents if that’s your thing.
Not only is Zunior.com pretty much the best digital music store around, but every year they do a massive Boxing Day sale that sees all the sweet tunes at half-price. That means during the sale you can buy the entire Dog Is Blue catalogue for about $5!
Check out the Zunior Boxing Day sale right here and support us as well as the most artist-friendly digital store out there!
