Split Release from Ghost Estates & Twin Kranes to Mark Record Store Day

In order to mark Record Store Day 2013, Ghost Estates and Twin Kranes have decided to join together and release a split 7inch vinyl.

A limited pressing of 250 copies has been ordered with both bands contributing a single track to each side.

Currently working on their second album, Twin Kranes make a rare appearance on this release, delivering a drone heavy version of Black Sabbath’s “The Wizard” showcasing an even darker electronic version of the troubled Twin Kranes sound. April sees the group surface for a number of shows in and around Record Store Day coupling up with space rockers White Hills at the Grand Social on April 5^th and Finnish Krautrock monsters KXP on April 25^th.

“In Waves” will be Ghost Estates first release since their 2012 debut album and possibly the first track from their upcoming second album. It’s also the same track they played for their Other Voices performance, due to be broadcast in April. The track was recorded at Darklands, a new studio set up by band member, Dan Doherty.

Both bands will be playing Dan Hegarty’s live 2XM session on April 18^th and the launch of the split release will take place on April 19^th in the Button Factory. Support on the night comes from The Notas. Doors are at 7pm and entry is €5.

The lads will be performing in Tower Records for Record Store Day April 20^th, with gigs in Roisin Dubh Galway on April 25^th and Triskel Arts Centre, Cork on 11^th May.
