In 2012, after having reformed our trio, and after having performed several gigs in Brittany, we took the decision to record a first EP. « Bleunioù an distruj », which was recorded, mixed and mastered at home, and was available from September of the same year as a free download and in full streaming.
A few months later, the EP received the award of best Breton language disc, given by FR3 television channel and Brittany Regional Council. « Bleunioù an distruj » was also well received by the public in general, notwithstanding the media. The music video has had more than 8,000 hits on You Tube.
There has been a constant demand for « Bleunioù an distruj » to be released in both CD and vinyl format. After much thought, the band has decided to release 200 copies of the EP in the digipack format, by pre-order on Bandcamp.
« Bleunioù an distruj » includes 3 songs, « Skornet », « An emzistrujer » an « Emgann Kergidu » ( B. Tangi cover version)
Our target is to collect enough funds to at least cover the cost of pressing ( 400 €) Without pre-ordering, and without your help, the EP would not be produced, and any money received would be reimbursed.
« Bleunioù an Distruj » will be available as a pre-order on Bandcamp for the sum of 10 € ( delivery charges included).
In addition to re-releasing the EP, , we have also produced a t-shirt, designed by the artist Jord ar Meur, well –known for his work on such magazines as « Breizh », « Talabao » , « Breizh », and his cartoonstrip, « Hiwell an Harluad. » The artwork is very much in the style of the Norwegian artist, Théodor Severin Kittelsen.
The t-shirt is also available as a pre-order for 15€ ( this does not include postal charges). The t-shirt is made from organic and Fairtrade cotton.
