Last Friday David and myself headed down to West Rd Concert Hall in Cambridge for the NMG Awards. We were nominated for best indie group (within a fifty mile radius of Cambridge). We didn't win but we came in the top five which was nice. The winners were Silver Screen.
As you may already know the title track from our début album was used on the trailer for From Bedrooms to Billions a little while back. So I'm very excited to announce that our track 'Evolution' taken from the new album Psychopaths Dream in Black and White has been used on the trailer for From Bedrooms to Billions: The Amiga Years.
You can watch the trailer below, and you back the film here:

I recently did an interview with our good friend Stuart Johns for his fan site thejourneyofanacornelectron.com. It's a great website and a must for any Acorn fans, check out the full thing here:

Day two of our gig swap with The Vigilantes, this time they were supporting us at The Corner House, Cambridge. Was a great night and a few familiar faces turned up to watch which was cool. Also on the bill was Lexie Green, who actually did backing vocals on some of the tracks on our first album, including Sugar Water and Open Your Eyes.
The Travis Waltons travelled all the way from Bristol to headline the gig and were awesome, it great to hear Millionaire live and Daniel Flay even gave us a couple of free T-Shirts.
Our next gig is George IV, Lichfield 7th November 2015.

The Axe and Cleaver is a Boston base venue and the last time we played here was about four years ago on a UK tour, which is how we met James Woodliffe. We stayed in contact and James has since formed an excellent band called The Vigilantes and so we decided to do a cheeky gig swap. We supported them at the Axe & Cleaver and they're coming to Cambridge tomorrow to play a few songs with us at The Corner House. All three of us turned up for this one and we did the full band thing.
Our next gig is The Corner House, Cambridge 3rd October 2015.
