Hi everyone,

I’m abundantly excited to announce that Cavalcades’ first E.P. Awaken Quite Alone is now available right here on the internet! At our store, you can listen to the whole thing; you can download it in pretty much any audio format for merely NZ$5; or, for a tiny NZ$10 you can snag yourself a copy on CD (expertly assembled by my own hand/scissors/teeth), plus a free digital download!

Thanks for lending me your eyes, your ears, and your support,
Fraser

Well, after several months of preparation, we’re ready to launch our first single. Listen to it right here, or click the ‘download’ link through to our Bandcamp page, where you can download it in almost any audio format and quality. It’s yours for free – or, if you want to help keep Cavalcades afloat, you can make a donation when you download it. So much choice!

Keep an eye out for the full E.P. Awaken Quite Alone, which will surface in May.

Here’s me performing “All Gathered ‘Round” in my room.

Our car, moving slowly
In the morning, in the morning.
My mother holding
an old dog, and talking.
The clouds were so perfect
on the hills, in the sunlight,
on Boxing Day, driving,
our minds were far away.

We’ve come to
the end of -
the end of -
the end of -
Bend and take your shoes off,
your shoes off,
your shoes off.
Those clouds are going to come down
from the hilltops, the hilltops.
The morning’s going to get rough,
going to get rough.

All gathered ’round
the small death that prepares us.
All gathered ’round,
it’s our grief that repairs us.
