Blackbud

Listen to the new album in full here.



Hello patrons of Blackbud. After a long period of radio silence its about time we got you up-to-date.



Needles to say the band has been a huge part of our existence for over 7 years (!!!) but since the end of our tour in June 2009 we've found ourselves concentrating on separate musical projects.

We've decided that although we don't feel the band is over, some time off to concentrate on new things is certainly called for. Despite that we still have some guitar amps and an irrepressible love for west country pubs so who knows, maybe sometime in the not so close future we'll get back to what we do be best.

Most importantly a big thankyou to everyone whose helped us with the immense job of running this band over the years (you know who you are).



So not goodbye, but we bid you adieu for the time being at least.
