Happy New Year. I know it's March, but 2009 has just started for this band. This weekend just gone we spent three amazing, inspiring and tiring days in Bink Bonk Studios with our friend and honourary forth member Mat Sampson. In those three days we recorded four brand new songs of which we are monumentally proud. These songs really sum up this band perfectly. Whilst all being quite different (there is a punk/country and western cross over alongside a Def Leppard style epic ballad - sounds weird and needs to be heard to be believed) they are all very much Treehouse Burning and all have the song writing quality we so proudly believe is our greatest strength.
I am an inspired man. I want the world to hear these songs. Keep checking back to find out how.

What is going on?
Ladies and Gentleman,
It has been a little while! Sorry about that. Want to know what we've been up to? Well, despite the lack of updates we have been busy - and not just with TB. We have another EPs worth of monster tunage set for a 2009 release. Stu broke his elbow which has out a stop to his drumming for the next few weeks/months. Jamie and I are going to be putting some acoustic shows in the diary so keep an eye out for that.
So what else has been going on with each of us? Here goes....
Me - Gav
I have been keeping my bass warm by stepping in as the new permanent bass player for the mighty FIRSTOFTHEGIANTS. We can be seen gigging in and around Bristol at least every month. We have a new set of songs which are excellent. Come check us out!
Jamie
J has recorded an EP under the name 'BOY WITH AN 8 TRACK MIND'. He recorded every instrument and vocal himself and wrote every note. In my honest opinon the three songs on the EP are pure genius. Three of my favourite ever songs. Sound over the top? Well he is my brother. Seriously though it is amazing. I'll be releasing the EP through shakeshakerecords when I get a spare minute.
Stu
Stu is playing bass with Bristol band MONKEY FIGHTERS. Their debut EP is out on shakeshakerecords on 15th December. Seriously worth a purchase. Stuey-Boy is every bit as good a bass player as he is a drummer. The boy puts me to shame!
OK so thats about it. If you are reading this having not downloaded any of our stuff, all three EPs are available on iTunes and most other download services. Well see you soon...probably next year.
Take it easy, Gav

THE NEW EP IS OUT TODAY!
The third EP from Bristol Rockers Treehouse Burning is out today from all major (and not so major) download stores, including iTunes.
Get your copy now!
Praise for previous releases:
"Modern melodic rock music with super sonic energy and spine shattering melodies is how Treehouse Burning describe themselves, and judging by the incredibly catchy 'Rocket Science' we'd have to agree" HUW STEPHENS, RADIO ONE
"'Glory Lasts Forever' jumps from the speakers like a wide eyed child from it's bed on Christmas Day, and with equivalent levels of unfettered optimism and expectation. And there is will stand, bubblegum riffs tripping over themselves with excitment, titles like 'Chicks Dig Scars' reinforcing the whole scabbed-knee and torn-school-jumper thrill of it all, tugging at your sleeve until you give it your full attention." JULIEN OWEN, VENUE MAGAZINE
TB HAVE BEEN COMPARED TO: Senseless Things, Manic Street Preachers, Supergrass, Weezer, Ash, Arcade Fire

Fresh out of the Studio
Hello you lovely people.
As the above title suggests we have just finished our third studio session with the absolute legend that is Mat Sampson in his awesome Bink Bonk Studio. We have recorded another 5 tracks and they have turned out amazingly well.
While gear up for the release of the new EP (title yet to be decided) you can catch a new acoustic song on our MySpace site.
Take care. Gav

"A LIFE WITHOUT LOVE"
Check out our myspace page - www.myspace.com/treehouseburning
You will find a brand new song available to download absolutely free. The song is called "A life without love" and shows a completely new side to the band. Acoustic guitars, sweeping, epic, lush harmonies and not a drum in sight.
Although we have played acoustic shows before, this is our first acoustic recording. It is actually the first of a few we plan to do over the summer before we release the next single.
Each song will be available free for a short time so make sure you download it soon and keep checking back for more free songs.

BBC Radio & a gig
We are playing the Fleece in Bristol on Thursday with the amazing STONE FROM DELPHI.
Come on down for a evening of ROCK. We'll be kicking the whole thing off at about 8.45.
Also, we were played on BBC Radio Bristol on Sunday Morning. The excellent Bristol Uncovered show played THE ESCAPE. The whole show is bloody brilliant - you should defintely have a listen. Here is the playback link - we are on about 1hr 35mins in.
