XMAS EP
news // December 17th 2010 by Exson.
About a year ago, we released "There's no Place Like Homes", an acoustic record that followed our house show tour. This tour could have ended like this but we had such a good time and response that we decided to go for another year of shows, still acoustic but in venues this time, throughout France, Belgium, Spain and Germany. Once again, this tour was full of nice meetings and great moments and it seemed just natural to share some of these moments with those of you who followed us, supported us, listened to our music or wrote to us.
With this live EP, we give you the chance to re-live some of these precious instants through what we thought were the most representative versions of some of our songs. And even though the recordings are taken from shows in Paris, be sure we had great times everywhere!

This EP is yours, which means you can download it for free and share it with whoever you want; you can also pay what you want or what you can, if you feel like it.
We're hoping that you'll send us some memories of this year of concerts, may these 5 tracks bring some like it did to us!
See you soon for new adventures, with electricity this time, on record and live.
Antoine / Guillaume / Martin / Simon
Tracks taken from our show at Le Café de la Danse, Paris, 11-10-2010 and a house show in Paris also, 01-22-2010.
Recorded live, with our trustworthy Zoom recorder, and the precious help of Patrick's huge live sound.
Chosen, cut, mixed (but not too much) and mastered by Antoine at Mobilison.
Thanks to le Periscope for the whole tour, Volvox Music for releasing "There's no Place like Homes", Patrick and Julien for making our live sound in the most incredible places and to you all for your support and fidelity.

On a more virtual note, we just redesigned our website to make it look more like the blog we want it to be. We will use it in the following months to tell you about the writing and recording of our next album. And since we find fun in that kind of thing, we also designed a mobile version of the site. Don't hesitate to send us your feedback if you're using an iPhone, a Blackberry, or anything that runs Android.
Love,
Exsonvaldes.
PS : for those who missed the previous updates: a short video from our trip in Sevilla this summer and a few
videos from the studio.

Dear Friends,
Our new album "There's no place like homes" is now out in Belgium, Netherlands and Luxembourg (through Green LFAnt), we will therefore be playing in Brussels on may 4 (Riches Claires) and in Liege on may 5 (L'Escalier). We will also be playing a house show in Brussels on april 23.
Our first tour in Spain went really well (you can find pictures here and here). People of Madrid and Sevilla, thank you. We especially liked the South Pop Festival in Sevilla (reviews, in spanish, here, here, here,and there). We will be back in Majorca on may 8 for the Malafama Festival.
In France, we will be playing an acoustic session for OUI FM tomorrow (may 20) at 7:50PM. The show will be streamed live on www.ouifm.fr.
A few months ago we played a house gig in Paris for a great show called Band'Appart'. The show is now online! The interview is in french, but you can still enjoy the live takes of "Sunlight", "Going away", "Lali", "Take on me", "Everything I see", and "As tears go by"! here.
Our new album There's no place like homes is still available. Get it from your favorite record shop, on iTunes, or directly from us (CD & MP3) on http://exsonvaldes.bandcamp.com.
Love,
Exsonvaldes.
