Happy New Year from The Proclaimers

"Hello and a very Happy New Year to all.

We have had a fantastic 2009 with the release of the Notes & Rhymes album and 95 live shows across the World that began in March at SXSW in Austin and ended at London's O2 for BBC Radio 2's Chris Evans Show 'Farewell Drivetime' party. Our thanks and appreciation to everyone who has bought tracks or made it to a gig, we hope that you have enjoyed the music. Whilst mainly writing in the year ahead, The Proclaimers will be doing a few live shows in the Spring and Summer of 2010, full info as gigs confirmed.

UK residents can access David Tennant's Desert Island Discs for BBC Radio 4 here (on line till 8th January). David describes his first track by The Proclaimers - "I could have chosen any and and every track from this band, probably my favourite band of all time. They write the most spectacular songs, big hearted, uncynical passionate songs."

Tonight, Thursday 31st December, Auld Lang Syne 18:25 on BBC Two (Scotland only), catch Craig and Charlie's contribution to Artworks Scotland film on Robert Burns most famous song.

Cheers,

Persevere"

All the best to Craig and Charlie from the Jocknroll crew for 2010.

Notes and Rhymes from The Proclaimers

Some news from the Reid Brothers at Camp Proclaimer:

"A new album, tour dates and much more to come this year and here's a few new things on the go so far.

To coincide with their acoustic performances in March at SXSW in Austin, LA & NY, The Proclaimers will be releasing a digital download EP where Craig and Charlie have covered the Kings Of Leon song "17".

The EP will also feature three acoustic tracks from a BBC Radio Scotland session from 2007, "In Recognition", "The Long Haul" and "S-o-r-r-y". The songs can be purchased as high-quality MP3s which will work on any player in digital format exclusively at Lost Tunes from 9th March and then available at all UK digital download platforms from 16th March.

See a wee video shot in rehearsal rooms of "17" at YouTube.

We have also launched a US micro site for exclusively American news at Proclaimers USA and Twitter and a Facebook page.

Craig and Charlie along with band members, Stevie, Garry John, Zac and Clive are currently having a great time recording songs for the new studio album "Notes & Rhymes" where they have re-united with "Life With You" producer Steve Evans.

Finally, we have teamed up with independent store Townsend Records where all The Proclaimers albums are available on CD and also Persevere Records tracks are available as digital downloads. The store can be accessed from The Shop or at Townsend Records.

We will be adding more tracks and merchandise in the months ahead."
