Hi Tracie
We saw you perform with Mott, and would love to know if you are planning
to come to the States. Would love to see you perform with your band. How
about a mini tour with you and your dad on the same bill? I think that
there are plenty of venues that you guys would do well in. You could even
share your dad's band to cut down on touring expenses.
I downloaded Race off of iTunes, and am going to purchase the rest of your
stuff off of your website. I think that you are THE up and coming artist
to watch, and I wish you great success. Hope to see you in the states
soon.

Just a quickie to wish you all
a happy & healthy Christmas....oh, am I allowed to call it that? Happy
Holiday maybe? That sounds very USA... I'll stick with Christmas...I am
not religious in the slightest but give me a break? Sometimes, it all goes
too far. I'm sitting on a train going to Scotland, so beautiful on the East coast, I forget sometimes. We are in what I guess you could call pre-production, we've got a ton of new material & we're recording it all to demo quality to make sure everything is ready for the real album recording early next year, the songs are sounding amazing & this band is better than ever, full of inspiration & passion for the months ahead, we will begin gigging again in January, Dom our drummer needed to let his foot heal (after an incident involving a guitar case & his ankle at Dingwalls) so we haven't been playing much lately, I've really missed it though so am ready to get right on it next year. If anyone wants to recommend a venue in their town feel free to send it through, always happy to try new places providing the sound is good. Venues with decent sound seem to be dying out in favour of any old pub with a crappy PA & a couple of beer crates trying to make an extra buck, unbelievable some places putting 8 bands a night on starting at half six? How effing greedy is that? Too many crap venues but I guess there are plenty of crap bands to fill them also. So, another year over & really looking forward to 2010 for so many reasons not least that we have a shocking new album to deliver & at some point the world will surely take notice? (hoping that wont be on my gravestone)... Be good to each other, people often forget to until it's too late & regret doesn't taste so nice. TH x

Screaming Superego - Album Review |
|||||||||||
|
THERE’S A curious tainted glow to Screaming Superego; a first hearing finds it relatively easy listening, yet consecutive plays intriguingly unveil Tracie’s tangled web of emotions. Some of the lyrics are almost a peek into what could be randomly scrawled diary entries, which ultimately give this collection of heart (and mind!) felt songs their foundation. A brave and subtle production, too, allowing Tracie’s creamy and emotive vocals to swirl to the fore. Highlights are the sultry yet unhinged ‘Broken’, and the mysterious and indecisive ‘Save Me’ where our Trace mindfucks with, “ I need for you to leave so I know that I need you’. Priceless. Like a jar of honey with
a tiny sliver of broken glass lurking somewhere in its contents, Screaming
Superego slides down well, but you better be paying close attention. Mmm.
Ouch. |

| Tracie's iPod Recommendations This month I'm listening to... | ||
|
Tracie Hunter Band (new demos) "Broken" ... just beautiful |
Aimee Mann "It's Not Going to Stop"... I just love that song. Very pretty |
Kings of Leon "Sex on Fire"... I'm assuming this lyrically is about a particularly hot night in the sack, not a b*llock flambe! |
|
Etta James "Endless" .... timeless |
Ronnie Spector "You Can't Put Your Arms Around a Memory" ... I simply love her voice |
Counting Crows "August and Everything"... one of my all time favourites |
