The Printed Press

Everyone living in Berkshire who reads this blog, buy your local paper this week – cos we’re in it!

Yes, the first stage of ATC world domination has been secured with a countywide write up on us and a major plug for our album launch. Although they made the fatal error of printing the box office number for Jagz when it's us who are selling the tickets direct from the website – but we’ll give them that slight faux pas...

It is the biggest single bit of promotion we have had as a band, and while maybe not making waves on a national scale – you have to start at home and as Berkshire is the home county of at least 3 of us, it's not a bad start. With a couple of radio slots confirmed and to be confirmed, and also hopefully a number of album reviews in the coming months, anything we can get that is positive from any media outlet needs to be seen as a good thing, and like anything, the more you get your name out there, the more people pay attention to you – or at least I hope that'll apply to us.

With only 2 weeks left until the album launch – anyone who hasn't yet got their tickets, get them today! As we’ve said, you can get them online at www.allthingsconsidered.org.uk, and I know for a fact there are some people reading this who haven't yet made the all important purchase who've already made it clear they are coming...do the right thing!

There – I feel better now. We’ve just named a brilliant young singer/songwriter by the name of Matt Wellard to open for us on the 12th. He, along with the gloriously impressive Naama Hillman will entertain you before we try and at least match them...we're going to have to be good that night...
