Hi!
Are you a drummer? If you didn't know, some of us Broadcasters have a new(ish) project. We're called Upturned Boats, and we're influenced artists like Wilco, Big Thief, Phoebe Bridgers and The Acorn. We're on the lookout for a new drummer, so DM us if you might be interested.

Bit of radio silence from us, we have some updates of some stuff we've been up to.
Firstly, Gill has made a solo album! It's incredibly exciting, and she's looking for a wee bit of help to get it released. You can preorder the album or other rewards here:

This is going to be really great. That new @Raveloe2 single reminds me of those 4AD records from the early 90s, and hearing it live is going to be a treat.

Despite our recent high profile spat at our last @OliveGroveRCRDS gig together, I'm very much looking forward to this one. Despite being a terrible dickhead, @BrokenChanter's music is glorious, and we have since buried the hatchet. #OGsquarego

Having already had a cheeky wee sneak preview, I can confidently say that this is one you're not going to want to miss!

Just caught up with last Thursday's @manoftheminch set on the link below. What a treat! Beautiful songs, and such an excellent addition to the @OliveGroveRCRDS family. I hear our very own @gillfleetwood features on his forthcoming album too. One of many reasons to check him out
