Hey beloved people,

After a decade of rocking our four-strings around Aotearoa and across the world, we are in the midst of a very long siesta. "Deep hibernation" we call it. There are other instruments to play, and other art projects to explore, and the WIUO has been a most enjoyable time-sucker but we need to head down some other musical avenues for a bit.

That's why it's so quiet around here.

We'd like to thank you from the bottom of our hearts and the heart of our bottoms for all of your bottoms-on-seats and dancing-on-your-feets over the years. We couldn't have done what we did for so long without you right there alongside us. We will see you again one day, we feel it in our bones. But for now, keep the bloody noise down 'cos we're trying to have a nap.

On our recent tour of the USA we popped into a couple of places and played a couple of songs. Luckily there's video! at The Onion's A.V. Club Undercover series.
