Silversun Pickups is currently tucked away in a Los Angeles studio working hard on the follow up to Carnavas, titled Swoon and scheduled for release in early 2009. Dave Cooley, the man behind the soundboard for Carnavas, was once again the chosen one to produce. Silversun Pickups frontman Brian Aubert on the reunion: “He’s a stronger producer now because of the records he’s done since we worked with him on Carnavas. And as far as experimenting with sounds and everything, he’s just as great as ever.”

The band will take a break away from the studio to perform at Austin City Limits on Sunday, September 28.

As we approach the September 30th release of La Rocca’s sophomore LP, OK Okay, One Tree Hill will feature yet another track from the album. The show airs next Monday (22 SEP) on The CW, and the song is called “Paris.”

Dappled Cities will begin recording the follow up to Granddance later this month in Sydney, with producer Chris Coady. Be sure to visit Dappled Cities website for studio updates and news on the new album recording throughout Sept / Oct / Nov.
