'Tonight' is the first single from their forthcoming eighth album entitled 'Words And Music by Saint Etienne' which is due for release in May. The release date for the single is still tbc but the band have stated on their official website (http://www.saintetienne.com/) that it will be released on both 7" and 12" vinyl, as well as on a download - and the EP will feature exclusive remixes and b-sides! The band are also touring the U.K. in May - pre-sale tickets are on sale as of today through the website.

This is their brand new video released today for 'Tonight'... Enjoy!
Saint Etienne have remixed the lastest single from fellow London duo Summer Camp! 'Losing My Mind' is the new single from their debut album called 'Welcome To Condale' and it will be released digitally on March 19th on the Moshi Moshi Music label.
This is the new 'Saint Etienne Remix' of Summer Camp's 'Losing My Mind'... Enjoy!
SummersRadio™ New Music! Summer Camp - 'Better Off Without You' Summer Camp are a new duo - Jeremy Warmsley and Elizabeth Sankey - from London. Last fall they released their debut six song EP called 'Young' on the Moshi Moshi Records label. They're currently working on their full length debut album - in fact they're actually seeking pledges to help finish it! That may sound a bit desperate at first, but it's actually a pretty cool idea.
You 'pledge' by choosing from about 60 band/ fan related offers! Each one has a corresponding price - from a download copy of the new album plus 10 pledger-only updates for £8 - to a signed t-shirt for £20 - to the band writing a song about you for £250! (Only 2 left!) Regardless of what you pledge you will be entitled to an advance download of the full album (and a copy of the cd when they're made) plus other upcoming exclusives - not to mention the fuzzy feeling you'd get inside for helping a new band make their first official album! If this song is any indication I doubt they'll be asking for funding when it comes time to make album number two - they could make it quite big in indie (and possibly even pop) circles!
This is the first single from the forthcoming album called 'Better Off Without You' - which tells the tale of a friend who you just can't handle anymore. I had one like this - who would call all the time to tell me about his problems in great detail - so I could comfort him - but he'd never ask anything about my life. I ended up just feeling like a psychiatrist - without the big pay cheque! The song reminds me a titch of some of Blondie's recordings - like a more pop/ less guitar version of 'Hanging On The Telephone'. This is 'Better Of Without You'... Enjoy!
And just for kicks here's Blondie's 'Hanging On The Telephone' from their 1978 release 'Parallel Lines'. The two songs aren't the same by any means - they just have a similar feel... Enjoy!
