THE GRAZING SAINTS triple-LP concept album!

Local psych-blues trio The Grazing Saints have announced a series of three LPs. Each album will focus on the musical mind of one of the three band members, Joe, Mic (pronounced "Mick"), and Paul (also pronounced "Mick"), with all three records being released on the same day, and fitting together in a specially made pyramid shaped record sleeve.

The band will debut the songs from each LP at three special gigs over the Halloween weekend. Each night, local artists will improvise a huge mural at the back of the stage, whilst the band provides the musical soundtrack. These murals will then form the artwork for each of the three LPs.

The titles of the records have yet to be revealed officially, but if our source is to be believed (Mmmm, sauce..), then here are all three LP titles in full:

LP One - You Must Be Joe Quinn! - the many moods of Joseph Quinn
LP Two - Are You Taking The Mic? - percussive textures from the mind of Michele Amato
LP Three - Paul The Other One! - from the soul of all-too-often-neglected bassist Paul Taylor

LP One will be translucent red vinyl, LP Two will be green, with LP Three apparently being blue. The triple gatefold LP sleeve will fold together forming a pyramid shaped stand for all three records to stand on, the idea being that when you look through all of them at the same time you'll "see the light", as it says in the band's press release. They even include a small clip-on light in the elaborate packaging (batteries not included).
