Over the next couple of weeks I will be dropping off several copies of a very limited, and homemade edition of 'Solt Olio' to:

Bull Moose Records

It will look like this:

I'm not exactly sure what I'll be putting on it. I'm thinking of adding an extra track to it though.

So make sure and stop by. It probably won't be there this weekend but the weekend after. Good luck!

FYI

I want to let everyone know I did not block ANYONE on instagram or facebook. I did terminate my personal account on instagram months ago and have been keeping the band's account updated since. I have also decided to retreat from facebook a bit so if you want to contact the band for shows or other inquiries please write to us through e-mail.

If you don't know our e-mail then it's ok to message but it might take longer for a response. Thanks for your patience.

*Update: I've officially taken my personal facebook account down and will only be posting at http://facebook.com/velvetants and http://facebook.com/ianmargolycz respectively

Record & Tape Exchange

We are fully stocked over at Record & Tape Exchange in Fairfax. Please pick up your copy today as they are at a discounted price of $5!!! (I had them lower the price for Record Store Day) and also threw a few stickers on the shelf there when you walk in. A BIG THANK YOU to RTX (Evan and Katie in particular) for keeping us in stock over there - And putting us amongst the masses for whatever reason and not in the local section! We'd take either though ;)

Happy Record Store Day and check out our instagram for what I picked up today along with other random postings: http://instagram.com/thevelvetants

Cotton Candy

Just a heads up: There are only a few copies left of the first run 'Cotton Candy' editions of SOLT OLIO. I've been calling them that due to their color schemes and just the overall feel of the layouts these had. They turned out pretty trippy looking. There's a time and place for starkness and this wasn't it.

Here's some more alternate artwork for the enthusiasts:

Most of these, or at least most of the first 100 copies included printed lyrics. If you didn't get those have no fear; there are more that may be included in upcoming giveaways and can still be requested through our storefront at Velvet-Ants.com (just ask)

Order soon!
