Woop! Yes, we’ve been quiet. Or rather i’ve been quiet. As My Kung Fu is just one person. Me. I’ve been busy with work and life. Yet whilst I’ve been busy, Soft Hearted Scientists have been busy in the studio recording a brand new album which they’ve titled WANDERMOON and which we’ll be releasing on download this September with a CD version arriving in early 2011. There’ll be a single too. Maybe even a video. Let’s take things one step at a time though eh?

Here’s the artwork for the album. Nice isn’t it? I ruddy love Soft Hearted Scientists. Hope you do too.

Scarecrow Smiles : Home Demos Vol 1 is the forthcoming new album by Soft Hearted Scientists. It’s a collection of 16 home recordings of songs which will never be recorded in a studio by the band. Either demos or idea onces thought lost, the recordings have been remastered for this release, fizzling with the life and spirit that make Soft Hearted Scientists the wonderful outfit that they are. There’s songs from the conception of the band right up to demos of tracks they were working on prior to the recording of their most recent album ‘Take Time To Wonder In A Whirling World.

The album will be available to download across the world from all reputable stores as of Mon 15th June. A CD version will follow in UK / Europe and Australia, the artwork for which is pictured above.

The pressing is just 1,000 copies - but be double-quick to get yours as the band are completing work on a new studio record which will follow this Autumn…

Having made a quiet return to playing live in Birmingham last month, the band return to the city to play the Moseley Folk Festival on the weekend of 4/5th Sept. They also play with My Latest Novel in Cardiff on 24th May.
