TME to play with Echo & the Bunnymen, Daniel Johnston

Well they are on the same bill at least. It’s going to be a St Jerome’s Laneway Festival. Late January, early February depending on your location. (Echo and the Bunnymen!).

(And here’s a photo of Jack and Bree…)

Also TME is playing at Sunset Sounds with Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Moby (amongst others). January 6 and 7 in Brisbane.
