BAND OF HORSES

* For a lot of reasons, Cease to Begin is the perfect title for the new Band Of Horses album. Not only do the songs themselves weave this theme through the record, but stopping and starting anew is also a reflection of the past year and a half.
* The songs on Cease to Begin are strikingly beautiful, with more sophisticated arrangements than the last record.
* "Cease To Begin" was produced by Phil EK (The Shins, Modest Mouse, Built To Spill)
* Released in March of 2006, Band of Horses' debut Everything All the Time made good on the promise hinted at in their early shows and demos. The band went from early shows opening for friends Iron And Wine, to playing on The Late Show with David Letterman by July, and being nominated as one of ten finalists (along with Joanna Newsom, Beirut, Tom Waits, and, the eventual winner, Cat Power) for the Shortlist Music Prize for that same year. And the record was well-received critically, with celebratory press in Spin, Entertainment Weekly, NY Times, Harp, Billboard, Pitchfork, Magnet, NME, Uncut, and a slew of others.
* The thing that sets Band of Horses apart from so many other great bands is that the music makes you feel something. It's an experience. It comes from the heart and it's a gift that not too many are blessed with.
*Debut album "Everything All The Time" was given an "album packet" on Triple J Radio we expect the same support and critical acclaim on "Cease To Begin."
* Band Of Horses toured Australia in December 2006 to packed headline shows. The real standout on the tour was their Meredith Music Festival performance where they were a clear crowd favourite.
