In october 2009 he finished a UK & Ireland tour supporting Thomas Dybdahl & The great october sound + The Handsome Furs.

Sebastian Waldejer took advantage of the long cold winter we have been experiencing this year to build a snow chair and having a cigarette sitting in it while having the whole thing recorded as a DIY video for "Ode to the farewell".

Sleepyard album available through Parasol

The new Sleepyard album Future Lines is now available through Parasol Distribution:

Title:Future Lines
Artist: Sleepyard
Label: CCAPKnirk
PS, NORWAY Norwegian dream-psych sphere-harmonizers Sleepyard return with 'Future Lines', the follow-up to their exquiste 'Easy Tensions'. This new 2009 album sees the band branching out into new orbits of sound and making a break from usual pop sensibility in their works. Legendary pianist Mike Garson (David Bowie) plays piano on four songs and this has made the material more diverse and experimental. Sonic Boom (Spacemen 3) contributes with drones and other tones. Other guest musicians such as Lukas Devita from Lithuania on old soviet keyboard to Venezuelan vocalist Yani Martinelli (Navy Blue) on vocals, making this album a true world music experiment. This makes for a fullblown psychedelic experience. A soundtrack to drift away with to faraway worlds.
