Hey everybody, just a few quick things- in case you hadn't realised, we've spent the last four weeks kicking ass across Sheffield (and for one week in Leicestershire at the Gathering of the Clans) and it's all going pretty awesomely; new stuff is roaring along and we've still a few sexy plans in the works.
Also, I'd like to call your attention to the following link: http://www.mynydd-du.co.uk/bands/northernoak.php
I wonder who those sexy beasts are? :D Keep an eye on the site, since Aled's still working on getting it all up and running smoothly. And stay tuned for further updates!
Cheers,
Chris

Hey everybody, just a quick update.
In case you haven't been keeping an eye on our gigs listing, October and November are going to be pretty busy months! We've got our first gig in October tomorrow down at the Grapes in Sheffield, with another gig next Sunday, and then the Gathering of the Clans Festival the Saturday after that!
In November we've got a gig of our own organising at the Casbah in Sheffield, entitled 'For The White Rose'- like a miniature Gathering of the Clans in Sheffield, with Ravenage, Annwn, Burning Earth and Andraste gracing our fair city. Then a few days after that, we'll be tearing up the Dove and Rainbow again, this time with Echofall.
So yeah, it's going to be a busy month or two! And as well as all those gigs, we're still going to be getting new songs sorted out; the latest one, working title 'Boudicca', is about 80% complete and just needs lyrics and to be played through a couple more times. As you may be able to tell, we're all feeling quite productive here in Northern Oak Land!
That's all for now- we'll hopefully see some of you tomorrow at The Grapes for what promises to be a majorly kick-arse gig!

Greetings, everybody!
As I'm sure you can guess from the title of this blog (and the subtle change to the 'Record Label' field on the left side of our page)...
Northern Oak has just been signed to Mynydd Du Records!This means that we have a very friendly label to help us with the printing and distribution of our next recorded work, and it also means that you should be able to download both Tales From Rivelin and the Into The Attic recording for free via BitTorrent soon.
In addition, we have quite a few plans either being considered or being worked on at the moment... not only are we planning a lot more gigs in various bits of the country as well as Sheffield, we have a couple of other things up our sleeves that you will find out in the course of time. Suffice it to say that one of those things should greatly excite you. :D
Thanks to Aled from Annwn for inviting us onto Mynydd Du, and stay tuned for updates!
