Thank you all so much for coming out to support us at the Middle East! We will not be playing any more shows this summer, but once school starts up and we get back into a routine, we'll be booking more gigs. For now though, you can check out some photos from the Middle East
and also listen to a new song preview up on our myspace. We're also hoping to get some live audio (and possibly video) from the show, so stay tuned for that.

So last night Ben did an interview with Andrew Palmer of WPLRM. The interview will be featured in the June episode of the podcast, scheduled for release this Sunday, June 8th. It really means a lot to us that he was willing to host us on his podcast, and we really hope you will support WPLMR by checking out the site, WPLMR.com, and downloading the episode when it comes out on Sunday. But since you are all such diehard Convey fans, we have decided to release the interview today for your listening pleasure. Thank you Palmer!

Warm weather! And we have decided to take things into our own hands and record some tracks in Ben's basement. Right now we're finishing up one of our newer songs called "Tunnels", which we will make availabe sometime soon... all of the instrument tracks are finished so all that's left is wrapping up the vocals and doing some mixing. We're also booking some shows for this summer so check back for more info on that. And we are in the process of designing some high quality new t-shirts, and we'll be putting some designs up for you guys to check out. Stay tuned.

Our music was recently featured on WPLMR, a monthly podcast hosted by Andrew Palmer. Here is his review:

Convey is a great band who brings a new freshness to the independent music scene with rhythm and riffs that you catch yourself humming, lyrics that you catch yourself thinking about, and a full rich sound that you catch yourself really enjoying. Their new EP is a five song glimpse of what is to come from this band, that is busy gathering a large consensus of fans, and how does the outlook appear—spectacular. From the vocal ranges explored in the opening song Chalkboard, the pleas to America in Campaign Speech, and the full bodied richness of the final track Colorblind—this EP is one worth listening to, and listening to, and sharing, and listening to again. To top it all off the band is embracing the artist centered concept of the Creative Commons Licensing system and offers their EP free for download and distribution at Jamendo, which makes them all that more reachable and ready for you to experience. In a final word from your favorite fake DJ, stop listening to me and go download this EP—you won’t regret it.
