So I’m sitting here listening to The Tiger Is In The Window by Chet while completing my tax return, and thinking to myself, “I wonder what Chet is up to? I haven’t heard much from them lately.”
Chet, you see, is an amazing art-rock band from Victoria. When I was in the Moonshine Revellers we shared a jam space with them for a time. Anyhow, when I went and checked out their page on New Music Canada today I noticed today that they have a link to hivestudios.net, which is apparently a recording studio/record label based out of Vancouver. And on their site is the news I’ve been waiting months to hear… the release of Chet’s new album Kau’ai is imminent. Apparently they’re preparing for a cross-Canada tour as well.
Chet recorded this album back in the spring of 2004. They’ve just been waiting for a record label to get behind the project. Congrats to them for making it happen.
