Entertainment For The Braindead was featured on Radio Fritz (Public Radio Station in Berlin and Brandenburg). The Show “Trackback” is all about Blogs, Web 2.0 and other Internet-related topics. They also play free music and post it on their blog.

And it’s really really good. We like it a lot. It’s called “turtle” and might be on their next album. Well, it should be!!!
While they were touring, we managed to get Tom and Liza featured on Balcony TV, where they performed “Turtle”.
And this is what it looks and sounds like:

As some of you might know, Entertainment for the Braindead’s debut “Hypersomnia” was album of the week on Hertz 87,9 Campusradio Bielefeld. Well, guess what… “Hydrophobia” is going to be album of the week again. From next week on there will be a daily little feature on Julia and her lovely music. Check it out on Hertz 87,9.
And there is more radio stories to tell: Julia was live on air at Hertz a few weeks ago and performed some of her new songs. We were there too and it was great. Listen for yourself right here.

[The Wind Whistles - Gold Fever (Live @ Antje Oeklesund, Berlin, 26.08.08)]
Tom and Liza just left Germany and we spent the last couple of days with them in Berlin. We went out for lunch and dinner, grabbed some beer and wine and hung out at a really nice lake in the afternoon. It has been a great time and we cannot say how much we like these guys. They are awesome. Truly lovely people.
They will come back next year and until then they will be working on a new album. So, be sure to hear from them again.
The Video above was taken at their last gig in Germany at Antje Oeklesund in Berlin, on Tuesday 26th of August.
You should also check out their tourdiary on their myspace. There you get a pretty good impression of what it’s like to be on tour for more than half a year.
Here it is, our second release:
“Hydrophobia” by Entertainment for the Braindead, a young and very talented singer songwriter from Cologne, Germany.
“Hydrophobia” is a 10-track EP of fragile acoustic pop tunes, full of colourful sounds and melodies - ukulele, guitar and flute are ever-present instruments, just like Julias (Entertainment for the Braindead) wonderful voice and her unconventional percussion that consists of jars, cans, boxes, drawers and peppermills.
Intimate songs that are detailed snapshots of thoughts and feelings - sometimes filtered and reflected, sometimes pure and transparent. It’s about drowning and it’s beautiful!!!
DOWNLOAD IT HERE or at our new friends from aerotone, who we teamed up with for this one.

The Wind Whistles - Somedays (Live @ byte.fm)
Tom and Liza are on tour in Europe and we finally met them. After countless emails and myspace-messages we were all very excited about meeting them face to face in real life. And there is only one thing we can say: they are lovely people.
There are a lot of reasons for all of you to go to one of their shows. Like you can see on the foto above, they are not only talented musicians, they can even balance a bottle of water on top of their heads. Besides that, they like tea, weißbier and chocolate. What they don’t like is coffee, meat and cigarettes. Another interesting thing we found out is that both of them have a german past, but none of them does speak any german. Apart from “weißbier”. Well, that’s not too bad 
When you go to one of their shows you can buy a lovely t-shirt and a cd with a more then 20 pages booklet, that has a lot of really nice paintings, drawings and photographs in it. And you get all the lyrics including the guitar chords to all of their songs. So, you can grab your guitar and play and sing along if you like.
Did I mention their tourdiary? Well, they have a tourdiary. What’s really special about this one is, that it’s an open one. It means you can write into it, draw a picture or put in a foto. You might want to leave your emailadress in there, so that they can stay in touch with you.
By the way, there will be more german shows in august (from august 17th to august 25th). If you want them to come to your place, please contact us or them.
And now we would like to thank you for your support so far. There has been a lot of positive feedback what makes us very happy.
