(antiMusic) Kris Roe from The Ataris checks in with this update: Hey everyone. It's been awhile. Just thought I'd bring you all up to speed with The Ataris. Been very busy recording a ton of new demos for what will be the next record from The Ataris. Been doing all the demos at a great little studio in Muncie, Indiana called Gallows Studios. The songs are coming along awesome! Have about 10-15 new songs and hope to write a handful more before finally recording in the fall. Still working on a bit more lyrics, Have a lot written but just need to piece them all together now. The music is just very melodic, raw, catchy, upbeat, sing along rock songs... Kinda like Minneapolis in a train wreck with early 90's Chapel Hill passed out drunk in the alley behind Gilman ST. ...Something like that. whatever. It's just flowing naturally and feels pretty great so far.
Heading out for the Canada leg of the "Blue Skies, Broken Hearts..." acoustic tour in July then possibly taking the tour to Europe / U.K. in late August - September. - The Canada dates are listed below. Keep checking back at myspace.com/theataris - you may log on soon and see some new demos posted. So if you have not added us yet. Make sure that you do!! Things are just beginning...
