We’ve been on tour for a week now and we’ll be home in less than a week, so it seems like a good time for a recap post.
After our show in Macon, GA tonight we’re officially heading back north, which is kind of exciting. The shows this past week have been small and generally sparsely-attended, and some have definitely been better than others, but A) the venues have always been interesting, B) we’ve made lots of amazing new friends and C) played some pretty good sets here and there, whether or not anyone was there to hear them.
Tomorrow we head to Knoxville, after which our tourmates in Commerce will sadly be heading home, leaving us and Amory to complete the rest of the tour. We already miss them and hope our paths cross once again. If you haven’t checked them out, please take the time to do so. If you like any early Saddle Creek-type bands, you’ll love it. If you don’t like any early Saddle Creek-type bands, you’ll still love it because they’re really good.
A huge, heartfelt thank you to everyone who has bought a shirt or a record or seen us play or even just listened to us over the past week. Love y’all. </southernaccent>

We’ve been told it’s okay to publicly share the address of our tour kickoff show: 18 Dustin St. in Brighton, MA (off the Warren Ave. stop on the B line). So if that house gets pillaged and looted later, it’s not our fault!
Show starts at 8pm, it’s a suggested $5 donation (to support the house itself and the touring bands: ourselves and Be Brave Bold Robot from CA) and it’s all ages!

CT date cancelled; NYC show starting early
In addition to the tour kickoff shakeup, our show June 4th at Sycamore (1118 Cortelyou Rd.) in Brooklyn, NY has been moved up - instead of starting at 9pm, the show will now begin at 6pm sharp.
Unfortunately, this means we had to cancel our matinee show at the Heirloom Arts Theatre in Danbury, CT with our bud Trevor Jude Smith, but fear not! We’ll be back as soon as we can, Connecticut!
Tour kickoff show - venue change!
No tour is complete without some last-minute changes to the itinerary, and the Littlest Sounds Tour is no exception.
First and foremost, our tour kickoff show this Friday has been moved from the Lizard Lounge to a house show at a private residence in Brighton, MA - the guys in The Grownup Noise were nice enough to host the entire bill at a friend’s house - plus, now the show is only $5 and no longer 21+! If you plan to attend, please email us at bigwhiteclouds@gmail.com so we can keep the address private :o)

Help support Big White Clouds on tour with a monetary donation!
We have started a campaign via Kickstarter.com to raise money for our stint on the Littlest Sounds Tour, presented by our friends at Littlest Sounds, featuring us, Amory Sivertson and Commerce. Whether you’re in a band or not, it’s probably obvious that touring is difficult and expensive, especially with gas prices on the rise, and we have about 3,000 miles to cover. If help us out with your pledge, we will absolutely make it worth your while!
- $5 gets you a free download of our new EP, which will otherwise only be available on CD at Littlest Sounds Tour dates.
- $10 gets you a free download and CD copy of the tour-only EP, plus a free copy of small white clouds on 12” LP.
- $15 gets you the tour-only EP, small white clouds on vinyl, plus admission to one of the tour dates.
- $20 gets you the EP, small white clouds, admission to one of the tour dates and a new Big White Clouds T-shirt.
- For $25, we will record a cover song of your choice and post the video of it on YouTube! Plus you’ll also get the EP, small white clouds, admission to one of the shows and a T-shirt.
- For $50, we will write and record an original song just for you and post the video of it on YouTube! Plus you’ll also get the EP, small white clouds, admission to one of the shows and a T-shirt.
Click the flyer above to go to our Kickstarter page and make your donation today! We have a goal of $500 by May 14th, and you won’t be charged for anything unless we reach our goal by that date!
Please repost this, ‘like’ this on Facebook, tweet this to your friends and share this however you can!
Thanks,
