 Departure and Farewell Update Flash #1 |
| Hem's new album really does exist! I was very fortunate to recently hear a sneak preview of Departure and Farewell. I cannot wait for everybody to hear this lovely album full of surprises, harmonies, and horns. Seriously, it was a joy (balanced, of course, with Hem's traditional sorrow). More information about the new music will be here all week. For now, I am still collecting my thoughts! |
 September 28 Show |
| Hem played a show on September 28, 2012 in Haines Falls, NY. This was Hem's first show in nearly 5 years. It was a private show at the IVOH Annual World Summit for Images & Voices of Hope. Click here for the setlist. It's an incomplete setlist, but it does include three new, never-before-played songs, so you can see what you might be hearing soon (no, there are not new shows scheduled yet). |
 New Promo Photo |
 |
Click on the little image to the left to see a new promotional photo of the band that accompanies an old band bio at the IVOH website. I think this is from a photo shoot earlier this year that will see more play as Hem's new music starts being released. Soon, soon! |
| Upcoming Shows? |
| On the heels of the news that Hem finished tracking the new album, Hem now says "we're certifiably surveying show dates for the new year" (scroll down to see Hem's comment). All About Hem, and all of you, now clear the 2013 calendar to make sure time is free to attend shows. |
| New Album Progress |
| Today Hem shared a new picture at Facebook with the caption "Tomas, Joe and Jason tracking the *very last* track for the upcoming LP. We're done!! It's a wrap. Off to the mixing studio. And then off to you all. Your patience has been astounding, and appreciated :)" Go visit if you haven't already and tell Hem how much you love them and hope for new music soon(ish). |
