DECEMBER NEWS

greetings and happy holiday times everyone!


And we have some excellent news for you.
Some of the original drawings used to make our recent video of "Magic Spell" are now available to order online with the Bandcamp version.

You can get a drawing with your download starting at $15 + shipping. (or £10 or 13€)

They've all been hand drawn by the artist Sam Wisternoff himself, and if you order in time he'll be able to post in time for the holidays!



and so to celebrate we're on the scout about for drawings that you guys might have done of any thisisthekit activities/events or inspired by our songs.
you can help us to find them by using the hashtag #drawthekit
post them to your instagram account and we'll share some of them on ours lIke so https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/drawthekit/
(you can use #drawthekit also on twitter and facebook and anywhere else you like)


and another nice bit of news is that Guy Garvey has chosen BASHED OUT as his 6 music album of the year!
speechless!
