MP3: The Lucksmiths – “Get-to-Bed Birds” (courtesy of Matinee Records)
Ah, this is bittersweet… A year after calling it a day, the Lucksmiths are releasing their final single on Lost and Lonesome in Australia and Matinee here in the States.
These are “the last two songs the band scribed” before breaking up. The a-side originally appeared on The Matinée Grand Prix CD, while the b-side (“The World of Professional Golf 1994″) was included with an Australian literary journal. The 7” single is limited to 1000 hand-numbered copies (L&s;L gets the odd numbers, Matinee the evens) and includes the MP3 download. It’s only $4, so what are you waiting for?
