Mountains for Clouds are breaking up. They've been with us for a decade, so it's especially hard to say goodbye. It's not all bad news though because they are leaving us with a parting gift of a brand new album!
The final album is called "Anxious & Aware" and it will be out 2/21. We will be streaming a new song next week, but you can already pre-order it on cassette right now at cylsrecords.com.
The final show with be on 2/23 in their hometown of Chicago at the Sleeping Village with Joie De Vivre and Harold. Tickets can be found at https://sleeping-village.com/…/mountains-for-clouds-lp-rel…/. All tickets comes with a free cassette of their last album too!

Hello friends! We are kicking off 2020 right with the signing of our announcement of our newest band, Thank You, I'm Sorry. We are incredibly excited for you to hear them!
Thank You, I'm Sorry is the solo project of frontperson Colleen Dow turned full band. Now joined by drummer Sage Livergood and bassist Bethany Schreiner, the band crafts incredibly relatable confessionals that everyone can connect with- struggles with love, working a job you hate, or just finding a place in the world. Songs that get to the heart of a young creative's struggle in a destructive world.
There is so much news about them, it's hard to pick what we should talk about first. It's probably best to start at the beginning, right?
To that end, we are releasing an all acoustic album on cassette/digitally called 'The Malta House' on 2/7. It has 10 songs and features all the songs Colleen wrote before adding other members to the mix. This album fits the singer/songwriter mold at its finest- cathartic vocals over intimate and driving acoustic guitar. For fans of Now Now, Soccer Mommy, and Snail Mail.
You can head over to New Noise Magazine now to hear the first single,"How Many Slugs Can We Throw Against the Wall Until We Question Our Own Mortality" right now:

But wait, there's more! When TYIS turned full band, they worked out some old jams and wrote some new ones and went into the studio- AND THE RECORD JUST GOT DONE BEING RECORDED. So that means at the some point in late summer/early fall, we are going to get a FULL BAND, BRAND NEW LP! WHATTTTTTTTTTT! Double dip Thank You, I'm Sorry LPs in 2020!
2020 is going to great, and TYIS is going to nearly book end it for us <3
