Mobius Band: Free Valentines day EP

From the Jdub Records Press Release:

Brooklyn/Massachusetts-based trio Mobius Band is not unfamiliar with the EP format. They self-produced four separate EP’s before their first LP, The Loving Sounds of Static, was released in 2005. Now, on the heels of the bands sophomore LP Heaven (“simply great pop” says Esquire) comes a new twist on an old theme - a free covers EP of love songs recorded in Massachusetts, and just in time for you and your sweetie (or perhaps your ex) to celebrate Valentine’s Day.

And whether sending a recent Neil Young ballad on a drunken Krautrock binge or turning Daft Punk’s electro Digital Love into something far more analog, the plan from the start was performance. Ben Sterling comments, “In some ways, working on a record the traditional way can be kind of a drag. There’s a lot of sitting around and obsessing about nothing. We were on tour all fall and playing together live every night. It was an appealing idea to lock ourselves in a small room and just play at each other and base things on that instead of making everything perfect and debating
silly details.”

The “studio” was a tiny, unfinished room at Noam Schatz’s hundred-year-old house in Hatfield, Massachusetts. “The wallpaper had just been scraped off so you can see all these old layers of paint. There’s a big hole in the ceiling, the floorboards are coming up. It was great,” says Peter Sax.

Next week, the band begins its first tour of the UK and Europe, a seven week jaunt opening for their friends Editors (dates below).
