ELECTRIC SOFT PARADE IN THE STUDIO

THOMAS WHITE BLOG: 24TH MARCH Just to keep you bods in the loop, myself and Alex have now completed our first week of work on the new, as yet untitled, ESP record - 5 backing tracks started, and a whole load more to come. At the minute, we're focussing on predominantly brand new material, borne of a random burst of writing I hit upon early this year. However, throughout the sessions we will be revisiting some of the 'older' new tunes, some of which we started playing out live late last year... all in the name of making the best possible record in the world right now, of course. Keep y'all posted. T XXX Electric Soft Parade Facebook

"Rivers" is taken from their upcoming record "Balcony Times", a collection of songs written over the summer and autumn months of 2010.
