No – JOROCK 018 Release date – Thur 4th July 2013 @ St Bonaventure’s Social Club, Bristol, BS7 8HQ “That beer you, are now holding, is cold beer, from the abandoned base” Chest Freezer (adapted 5th album lyric using the word ‘beer’ in place of ‘moon rock’) July 4th sees the release of a new STFU American IPA Beer to celebrate the recent launch of the fifth Southern Tenant Folk Union album ‘Hello Cold Goodbye Sun’. Acclaimed across the board with 4 star reviews (in The Independent, Irish Mail On Sunday, Scotland On Sunday, Daily Express, Q Magazine) the new album features a collection of new and original material that showcases the growing songwriting, instrumental and vocal talent from within the band. This all came about because in 2012 when Southern Tenant Folk Union played in Bristol to promote their 4th album Pencaitland they stayed at their mysterious brewer friend’s house after the show. On discovering that this brewery was being set up it was proposed that the next time the band came to town there might be a cold and alcoholically refreshing beer tie-in from the burgeoning craft beer brewers (at that point they were still without a name). Since that late night conversation Wiper and True have established themselves on the Bristol craft beer scene (with their beers appearing and selling out in bars like The Star and Dove, The Lanes and The Hare On The Hill) and Southern Tenant Folk Union have been releasing the new album, performing live on national TV (The Late Late Show in Ireland – the world’s longest running chat show – see the clip here – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9xzA99CG5Gw) and taking that new album to number one in the Americana UK charts in March. The beer label itself features exclusive artwork by regular STFU designer Jonny McClean and the beer has been described as a single hopped beer using Amarillo, a wonderfully complex hop with fruit and floral notes, warm citrus, delicate pine and creamy caramel’. A very limited edition evening then as Southern Tenant Folk Union bring beer, musical happiness and hoppy-ness to St Bonaventure’s for one night only. STFU’s American IPA will be on sale from the bar at the venue at a very competitive price.
