Galahad news

Galahad have, once again, been in the studio with Karl Groom working
on a few songs which will be released as EP's/singles throughout the
next twelve months or so.

These 'new' recordings feature an eclectic mixture of new versions of
older songs, re-mixes and edits of existing songs plus an unusual
cover which will be released as a single in its own right sometime
soon!

More details regarding these releases will emerge in the coming weeks.

REMEMBERING NEIL
As many of you will know, our long time Bassist Neil Pepper sadly died
of Cancer of the Oesophagus two years ago this September.

He did, however, leave a compact but interesting musical legacy and
thus we have made available one of his tracks, 'Outerlife', for
download on our merchandise page at www.galahadonline.com.

'Outerlife' was recorded around 1997 and features Bruce Soord of The
Pineapple Thief on guest vocals. Unfortunately, only a cassette
version exists which we have converted to MP3 and the sound quality is
not too shabby.

All proceeds from the sale of this track (minimum 45p..so a bargain
really) will go to Neil's family, his wife Jojo and their three young
children Rosie, Poppy and Finn plus, of course, you will also be
helping to keep his memory alive.

BATTLE SCARS/EUPHORIA T-SHIRTS
After much thought and scratching of heads we have decided to make
available two separate T-shirts for each of the last two albums.
Furthermore the images will be in the form of vinyl printed on to high
quality fruit of the loom T-shirts as this seems to be only way we can
capture the full vibrancy and detail of the artwork on a printed
shirt.

They will be available in all sizes from SMALL to XXXL. We can also
provide skinny girly T-Shirts too if necessary! J

They are now available from the merchandise page on our website at
www.galahadonline.com at a very reasonable £12 each with a small
postage fee for our overseas customers.

We are also thinking of making similar T-Shirts available emblazoned
with older album covers for those who are interested. Let us know if
you are and if there is enough interest we'll get on to it!
