The big news over here at Endless Recordings is that Tiny Whales will be preforming their last show with the lineup that you have come to know and love on June 12th at Great Scott in Boston.

Ryan and Matty will take a short hiatus in order to recharge their creative juices, and we will see what becomes of the band in the fall of 2008. We have been assured that there is a lot of music left in these guys, but the future of "Tiny Whales" as an entity is still uncertain.

In other news, Akudama have successfully finished up the first leg of their US summer tour.  Some photos and stories from the road will be available soon on the "fan section" of the new website, appropriately titled The Appletree.

As the band takes a well deserved break at home around NYC, they have a few "secret" shows lined up (sorry, we are not at liberty to post them) and a special show at The Delancey, in celebration of our friends at Break Thru Radio's birthday.

Also, if you have not yet checked out the new video for "I Will Be Glad," or taken a look at the new shirts, please head over to the Akudama myspace page: here.

Tour dates for Leg II of the summer tour will be posted shortly.
