'Little Copper Still'- Official Release Announcement!

It is with enormous joy that we share with you the news that our début album, 'Little Copper Still', will be officially released on the 11th of March 2013 (digitally) with a full digital release on the 8th April 2013.

Those of you who have been following us on this adventure will know how emotional and special it is for us to finally see this day arrive.

From our travels to California recording tracks with producer Ian Brennan (whose work with folk legends Ramblin’ Jack Elliot, Peter Case and Tinariwen have all garnered Grammy Awards) to finding them a good home under the hard working Clubhouse Records label here in the UK, it has been a long but wonderful, wonderful journey and we hope you will think, as we already do, that it has been very much worth it.

'Little Copper Still' will be available on CD as well as digital download - full details closer to the release date.

To celebrate the release we are also thinking of putting on a special live show, any suggestions are more than welcome.

In the meantime, below are some of the things people have already been saying about it:

"A very very good album"... "I love their sound"
Bob Harris, BBC Radio 2

"The album is certainly going to be worth waiting for"
Mark Lamarr, BBC Radio 2

"An excellent album, ★★★★"
Country Music People magazine

"A thoroughly juicy selection serves as a splendid introduction to a band currently at the forefront of the UK’s alt.country scene"
R2 Magazine (Rock'n'Reel)

We cannot thank you enough for all your support and patience over this time but... thank you, thank you, thank you!

The 'Nebraska' Sessions

Back in 1982 Bruce Springsteen released 'Nebraska', a collection of sparsely recorded tracks originally intended to be demos for his sixth studio album.

To celebrate the 30 year anniversary of its release, Clubhouse Records gathered a group of musicians together to pay tribute to 'Nebraska' and throughout the course of a single day, 10 bands recorded the albums 10 tracks live straight to 4 track cassette tape just like The Boss did back in the day.

The sessions were filmed and below is our contribution, "Used Cars", hope you enjoy it!


Audio produced, recorded & mixed by Trevor Moss. Video direction, lighting, camera and edit by Pierre Thiébaut.

The live show linked to the sessions sold out over a month in advance but if you were lucky enough to get a ticket, you may have also managed to get your hands on one of these limited edition CDs:

Americana UK had this to say about the live show:
"The Cedars have one of the most readily identifiable sounds in UK Americana and they added their trademark change of pace towards the end of ‘Used Cars’." ... "This was comfortably the gig of the year for me and will live long in the memory."

And Band of Banjo Playing Badgers:
"What better way to leave you wanting more than The Cedars' wonderful rendition of Used Cars?"

Other acts involved in this project included: Trevor Moss & Hannah Lou, The Dreaming Spires, Danny George Wilson (Danny and the Champs), Case Hardin, The Redlands Palomino Company, The Hi and Lo, Mad Staring Eyes, The Arlenes, Jack Day and Michele Stodart (The Magic Numbers). All the sessions are well worth watching - check them out here.
