Some fantastic news
in the College Fall camp!! We are excited to announce
that we are heading to London to perform three
shows at London's leading industry festival, City
Showcase between the 2nd and the 6th of June.
------------------------------------------------------------
College Fall were granted the opportunity via
a Sonic Bids competition as the only act from
Australia or New Zealand selected by the City
Showcase A & R team. City Showcase is London's
leading festival for new music and fashion attracting
international audiences, working with musicians,
performers and artists by providing networking
opportunities, workshops, information sessions
and showcase gigs.
Last year City Showcase featured more than 500
performers and was enjoyed by more than 2 million
people. The event has helped discover a diverse
range of acts since 2003, including Amy Winehouse,
Razorlight, Keane, Seth Lakeman, Hot Chip, Sway
and Newton Faulkner.
------------------------------------------------------------
Make sure you check out the Performance
page for our dates in London! We will be playing
a few extra dates while we are in the UK - make
sure you head down to a show. We would love the
support!

Unfortunately, due
to unforseen circumstances, our planned scheduling
of shows in Denmark has been cancelled. So, we
are looking for gigs in any Danish town between
now and the end of August. So what's a band to
do if they have no shows to play for a few weeks...
Ask for help! So If you can help us out in anyway,
please get in touch!
Thank you all very much.
Saturday 21 July
Hello everyone!
Just a quick note, unfortunately we have a few
date changes with the tour. Our Danish performance
at Byfest has been moved from 10 August to 4 August,
meaning that we have had to cancel our show at
the Glass Onion in Peterborough on the 5th.
Our Midlands friends need not worry too much,
we will be touring the area at length on our album
launch tour in late September including the Glass
Onion. Apologies though for any inconvenience.
This week we have some great dates in the south
west, rounded out by an awesome show at the Social
in London, with Helen Renaut, John Bartholomew
and Candythief. We are on stage at about 10pm
and it is $5 entry.
Ciao for now.

Hey everybody,
Exciting things are happening! We have 2 more
weeks of this west coast winter before we jump
onto the plane for London…
This is also my first time updating the news!
It’s Simon here… The three of us are
in high spirits and it has been creeping into
our shows.
Thanks to the 3 high schools we played at in the
Bun Vegas area. We had an awesome time and it
was great to meet everyone! Hopefully we’ll
be back in December.
We have just updated the Performance
page with some European dates and will keep adding
them in the coming weeks….stay tuned.
Friday 1 June 2007
Farewell Australia!
Winter's coming and
it's time for us to escape again to Europe. This
time we are touring to celebrate the release of
our new album 'Eleven Letters' in England, Denmark
and Finland... very exciting!
More on that later... because before we fly away,
we will be playing a couple of farewell parties.
One in our surrogate home town, Bunbury, on 16
June and our final show at the Paddington Ale
House on Sunday 24 June. Both shows are free entry
and will be your last chance to come and have
one last drink with the three of us before we
go.

with a huge opening show at the Hyde Park Hotel
on 23 March followed by a fourteen date tour of
this great state of ours.
Soon we will tell you all the story of the eleven
letters we penned. But for the moment, Gravity
is your initiation to those letters. A song that
asks the question “when I said I love you,
I meant do you love me?” and leaves the
answer sitting on the lips of all those that choose
to listen.
The EP will feature 5 tracks:
1 – Gravity
2 – Heart Strings
3 – Lake Norman
4 – Like It Or Not
5 – That’s The Way Love Is
It will be officially released via Varsity Records
on Monday 19 March 2007. It will be available
for just $5 for those who purchase tickets to
our opening night (email info@collegefall.com)
and for $10 at all live shows thereafter. It will
soon be available for $13AuD from the College
Fall website. College Fall will perform in full
band mode at all our tour shows.
We can’t wait to get out on the road again
and to see you all soon!

Hello friends and fans
A big thank you to everyone who came down to our
Velvet Lounge show last Sunday! It was such a
memorable night for all of us, particularly Simon,
after officially announcing his citizenship to
College Fall country! Keep your ears peeled because
we will be announcing another band show in Perth
very soon..
.
Now, we head back into duo mode with a series
of Thursday shows at the Windsor Hotel in South
Perth, coupled alongside some fantastic soloists
- A great way to make an early start to your summer
weekend.
We have prematurely ended our stay at the Leftbank
and will be on tour down in WA's south-west over
the December 14-16 weekend (check the gig list
for details). Don't fret Freo kids - we do plan
to head back to the 'Lefty' some time in the new
year.
And city folk - not only do you have the Windsor
to worry about, you can catch us in duo mode next
Wednesday at the Paddo in Mount Hawthorn opening
up for good friends Russian Winters.
To our east coast and overseas comrades; I'm sorry
- this mail would be kind of boring for you. But
we promise to entertain you with our gigging plans
soon!
Take care everyone and let the festive season
begin!

a mission drive through France, Belgium, Holland
and Germany. We recently played to a fabulous
packed room at a pub called ‘Underhuset’
which literally translates to ‘under the
house’ (or basement – which it is!)

so far, however there are still a few left for
Danish fans, which can only be purchased at our
upcoming shows. Check out our Performance

Hello everyone!!
Well we are two weeks into our first ever European
tour and we are having a complete blast of a time
so far... We had a few logistical problems at
the start (buying a car is so time consuming over
here and there are so many additional costs!!!)
but ever since we started gigging it has been
fantastic. We are just on the end of 10 days straight
gigging, all of which have been in the south -
Devon, Cornwall and Sussex. Glenn promises to
put up a new tour diary excerpt as soon as he's
had a good nights sleep! Take care everyone and
shoot us an email any time at info@collegefall.com
Sunday 28 May 2006
Well the time has finally come… As I type
we are both franticly packing our suitcases getting
ready to embark on our European Tour. How exciting!

was an event and a night that we will never forget…
especially the double encore!! Thanks guys! College
Fall will be down a member for a little while,
as Jodie travels over east, but that won’t
stop Glenn and the new band hitting their straps

night! It promises to be a different show with
Glenn mixing some of his solo songs with College
Fall tracks and songs from his previous band The
Nordeens. At the end of the month, Glenn will
be catching up with Jodie to play some duo shows
in Melbourne and Adelaide. For all gig details

The Hydey
Last night we played at the Hyde Park Hotel along
side Benedict Moleta, Claire Clarke and The Ghost
Hotel. We played a set of mainly new songs including
a new rendition of Jodies piano opus Closer, completed
with some pretty glockenspiel and triangle percussion.
It was great to play at the Hydey again too -
it was our first gig their as College Fall, although
we have trampled our equipment through the sticky
Hydey carpet many times in the past with previous
bands. In other news, we have been busy organising
tours and arts grant applications, setting up
a new website and developing our first attempt
at merchandise pens!
