Kickstarter smashed! Album launch!
Oi oi…
First we wanna say thanks a MILLION to our amazing fans for helping us fund the pressing and videos for our record. We raised over TWO GRAND in THREE WEEKS. That, is astonishing. For the legendary backers, EIGHTY THREE OF YOU, we’ll get in touch asap once your rewards are ready.
Now that means we can have the album pressed to vinyl and CD. So we’ll be flogging these at THIS! It’s our album launch, and Xmas bash, all in one night. That’s right it’s the Saturday before Christmas, so merriment and mirth are hot on the agenda. We have some badass support from Afromanding [west African grooves] and Andy Lingard [violinist/saxophonist/loopstation extraordinaire] Tickets are only a FIVER, as we want a big party and we don’t want anyone to miss out. If your mate’s skint, buy them a ticket for Xmas. Get them HERE
Info on the release to follow shortly. xx

SUMMER OVER.
It’s August, it’s bloody cold and wet. Best sign off now for the summer. We had a blast partying with you all!
It’s been a more limited affair this summer on stage as we try and hack away at the saline sasquatch that is the “difficult third album”. It’s definitely going to be different, we want to make it quite special and so patience will be a well awarded virtue.
Two more gigs this year then.
SAT 29 SEP – GRAVITY FIELDS FESTIVAL, Grantham, Lincolnshire
SAT 6 OCT – DERBY FOLK FESTIVAL
Sea you there.
Thanks Europe! Theurope.
Yes I know we came back weeks ago… it’s tooken us THAT long to get a grip on life since. Everyone was amazing to us, and this includes our own shores too, and that includes the Welsh! After all, we are all part of Europe, right? Still? Who knows.
Anyway, here is JUST THREE pictures to soak in, there are more on our FACEBOOK and INSTAGRAM pages. Stay out of Twitter, it’s just one massive argument all the time. Life is too short for that.
We have a new bass man. Trout Tickler Todd. Also seen in Alright The Captain. He’s boss.
We have some summer shows… not loads but just some. get your rectums to one of those! See Gigs Of Mirth. All for now. Kisses and fishes xx
PS “tooken” is an Oxford-validated word.
TOUR
We’re back. And fierce. And raging like a big balled bull. Come get a bite out of our mirthy biscuit on home shores and the continent next few months.
See Gigs of Mirth page for tix..
NEWS
Sorry for not being very updatey of late.
But what we would like to say is a fair winds to Jeremiah Planks on Fire. It’s been a fast and bulbous 5 years in the Mirth. Thanks for all the giggles and extreme bass faces and the best of luck in future endeavours to that man.
Happy New Year
Seas-on’s Greetings. We hope you all have been sloshing it up and that these last twelve months have been a strong and stable year for all…
Now let us drink, to a two thousand and eighteen! We’re going to sign off the year with this little ditty, our brand new winter warmer vid if you’ll join us…
