Halves - Growing & Glow

Halves' debut album It Goes, It Goes (Forever & Ever) gets its long-anticipated release tomorrow (it got the 5-star treatment on State: http://tinyurl.com/2vzoe48 ). As a taster, check out 'Growing & Glow', which features Amy Millan: Millan is a part-time member of Broken Social Scene, a full-time member of Stars and a pretty decent solo artist in her own right, so we're talking indie rock royalty here. What a coup. Halves' album launch takes place in The Workman's Club on Saturday night, with At Last An Atlas and Pablo Savage Trio supporting. The band were seriously impressive when supporting Bear In Heaven earlier on in the year - http://tinyurl.com/3yhfgxh. In other news, I really need to learn how to deep-link.
