Daniel G. Harmann & the Trouble Starts to release new full-length in October

We at BBR are very excited to announce a new full-length from Daniel G. Harmann & the Trouble Starts entitled "Risk" to be released in October 2010. The new record will be the follow up to the "Our Arms EP" released in May 2009 and only the 2nd release for Daniel with the backing of the Trouble Starts.

"Risk" features 11 songs and will fully showcase the band's sound, which, if you've seen one of their recent shows, you have become well acquainted to.

The band's next show will be May 30th as part of Seattle's Folklife festival and they'll play again a couple weeks later at the Sunset on June 11th as part of Noise for the Needy.

For now, check back to bbrecordings.com and the band's website, hellotower.com, for updates. More details about the release coming in the next few months!

Thanks for supporting independent music,
- BBR
