In his first release post-Sound Team, Bill Baird has joined up with the artist conglomerate label Autobus to produce Pink Clouds, a limited edition 100 copy run cassette tape. Baird is also working on a new CD, currently entitled Bright Blue Dream, which should see release on Autobus in March.
To celebrate Pink Clouds, Baird will be heading west on a short tour, kicking off tonight at Beerland. Baird will be taking to the road with a full six piece band, and the shows will purportedly feature accompanying video that he has orchestrated into a full sensorial experience. Gulf of Mexico will also be playing at Beerland, making their debut with former Sound Team drummer, Jordan Johns.
In other Autobus news, after their impressive first year with releases from Brazos and Mark David Ashworth, the local imprint has a pretty full 2008 already planned. In addition to Baird’s next album, the long awaited follow-up to Sparrow House’s debut, Falls, is expected early next year, along with a new release from the Weird Weeds.
