Even though I’d been passed more than a few rumors regarding the breakup of The Lovely Feathers, they just announced that they’ve wrapped up recording for their new album. From the band’s post on Myspace:

hey folks.

we’re just finishing off the recordings for the new album. it will hopefully be released this summer. we have 3 quick shows in march. come come.

Happier new could not be announced today. If you don’t already own their debut album, Hind Hind Legs, do yourself a favor and pick it up.
