Title: new Rainbow Chasers album in the making Post by: koho (Koen) on May 19, 2011, 08:34:16 AM I absolutely adore the Ashley Hutchings' post Albion Band project, Rainbow Chasers. Their wesbite doesn't seem to have a lot of information, but through Ruth Angell's own site I found her twitter account, and on 10 May Rachel writes "Phew!! Two days of full on vocal sessions,The Chasers album nearly finished!!". So that made my day, it's been too quiet on the Rainbow Chasers recording front in recent years. Very much looking forward to this.

Will be looking forward to this!

Splendid taste in A&R. :) Title: Re: new Rainbow Chasers album in the making Post by: KascadeDan on May 19, 2011, 04:53:14 PM I read somewhere (think it was their website) that they were putting together a sort of 'best of' compilation album.
Title: Re: new Rainbow Chasers album in the making Post by: koho (Koen) on May 19, 2011, 05:37:25 PM Presumably that's Talking Elephant's pointless Best Of 2004-2010 compilation from last year. Pointless as in, they made 2 albums. Why release a compilation containing tracks from a mere 2 albums? Of course they added a few bonus tracks so that an idiot like me buys it :P but: pointless, and the artwork is minimal without even any writing credit.
Title: Re: new Rainbow Chasers album in the making Post by: folkicons on May 20, 2011, 12:29:52 PM Erm .... info about recording of new album has been on Ashley's site since early April. No details yet about track listings but check back soon. Compilation info was posted some time ago.
Title: Re: new Rainbow Chasers album in the making Post by: koho (Koen) on May 20, 2011, 04:33:49 PM Er, ok, yes. Well, it wasn't on the Rainbow Chasers site anyway where I would have expected it http://www.rainbowchasers.co.uk
'Breaking news' there is the announcement of last year's compilation album ... Title: Re: new Rainbow Chasers album in the making Post by: koho (Koen) on March 04, 2012, 06:49:30 PM Er. The new album should've been out in the autumn. But I can't really find which autumn?
Googling brings me a title (Under The Eaves) and it says somewhere that they are now the Chasers (losing the Rainbow bit), but I can't find anything else. Anyone knows this is still happening?

Talking Elephant's artwork and presentation is generally mediocre... I'm also not impressed by the sound on some of the reissues I've bought from them.

Re-badged as the Albion Band? |
