Holes by The Jane Austen Argument
This is the lead single from The Jane Austen Argument's debut album, "Somewhere Under The Rainbow", slated for release in February 2012. The lyrics for the title track, "Holes" were written by award-winning author, Neil Gaiman.
We have been lucky enough to get graphic novel illustrator and artist extraordinaire Mark Buckingham (Fables, Sandman) on board to create some STUNNING cover artwork for the single.
The two B-sides are from our very first single... before we knew how to release a single. We printed and stamped the discs by hand and sold them at a small scale gig in Melbourne. They have never been available for digital purchase before now - and only 50 physical copies of the original single were ever made.
The live recordings of Bones and Ready To Heal were part of a webcast gig where we performed with Amanda Fucking Palmer at MixMasters studio in Adelaide - the same studio where Amanda recorded parts of Ukelelehead and Amanda Palmer Goes Down Under. 20-odd AFP fans were crunched into the studio to experience the recording process as the masterful Mick Wordley worked his magic.
