Thank ya kindly and we luv ya!
We want to thank everyone who came down to help celebrate our release party at Henriksberg a few weeks ago. Thanks to Kim, Mattias and The Törley Sisters for the epic djing. Thanks to Henriksberg, Jonk and Nanna for getting everything ready and thanks to Joakim for the sound. We also want to thank Eamonn Dowd for his killer opening set.
It was a great night. From the great response to the little surprise acoustic gig we did early in the night to the crazy dancin' and drinkin' into the wee hours, thanks for making it a stellar night for us!
There's one thing that makes all the hard work seem easy afterwards, and that is: y'all. All of y'all that come down to our gigs and have a good time with us makes it all worth it. We luv ya!
See ya next time,
Your favorite Darlings
