NYE

Just incase you haven't heard,

WE have a NYE show at Vangelis Tavern with Economics, Karpinka Brothers, Myles and The Blanks, and the event is hosted by Brendan Flaherty. Check out the amazing POSTER:

Tickets are $10 in advance or $12 at the door. You can pick up tickets at Beaumont Records or Vangelis or online HERE.

Regina:

We had a blast playing in Regina last weekend. We have always loved O'Hanlons, however, hanging out/playing at The German Club was right up our leisure-activity-loving alley.

We have more HAG shirts printed! They are $15 each or $20 with a copy of one of our albums.

We will be playing in Regina Friday November 30th at O'Hanlon's with The Wildmen. Also we are hosting a pancake breakfast the next morning at The German Club. See the FB invite HERE. 

Also you can download this track for FREE of ours:

It's almost our third year anniversary. That's three years of 'Haggin out. Holy!

Happy Halloween!

Just a reminder,
you can download the spookiest song we have for free here:

Also, remember when we made that video in ghost-town Saskatchewan?

Thanks for the support everyone.

We had a wonderful time out east. We feel very lucky to be able to leave the prairies and still have successful shows.

We've uploaded an album on Facebook of our travels. You can check it out HERE.

We are officially sold out of our HAG shirt as well. We will be getting some more printed sometime in the next month or so as well as getting our new CD printed in better cases. We play Moose Jaw Summerfest Sunday August 19th at 3:45 pm. Other than that, we are going to lay low for 6 weeks or so and work on some new material. We are planning on playing Calgary and Edmonton in October as well as Regina.

And we play Co-op Fest on November 2nd at The Odeon.

Take care. Enjoy the rest of your summer. Some of us 'Hags will be adventuring out to rural Saskatchewan to work on a potato farm for harvest!

We HAVE shirts!

good'n'greasy

TODAY:

We are playing Art in the Park in Ashworth Homes Park in Caswell Hill, here in Saskatoon.

Our set time runs from 2:15-2:45.

Pack a bagged lunch and come!

We will be cruising to Rocky Mountain House at the end of the month (June 29-July 1) to play FROG FEST.   We will be taking our new Haggin' Wagon:

And we are doing the final mixing on our full-length this week. What an exciting month for us 'Hags!

We are still working on our music being accessible to download via the internet (with the new album there will be no doubt), however, accept our apology by being able to download these two tracks at no cost!

Planet S

look what Craigy S wrote about us last issue of Planet S Magazine:

Seahags: what a great name. Thankfully, the music behind the name is just as sweet. Well, maybe ‘sweet’ ain’t the right word. More like boot-stompin’, rootin’ tootin’, heart-breakin’ and ass-wuppin.’ Their EP Gospelexplores the powerful sounds of gospel music, without paying too much attention to the religious notions behind it. Sure, you’ve heard some of these traditional sounds before, but by adding haggard, fuzzy guitars and embracing the straight-up personality inherent in gospel music, they’ve truly made it their own.


Kisses!

Listen to this song (soooo good):

We finished recording our full-length today! 

It's ten songs and should be released in July. 

lazy'n

We have one more day in the studio to get vocals down and then we are finished recording our full length. We are aiming for a July release so we can bring it across the country with us. We pool all our money we get from playing gigs to pay for our recording costs. Kayla is our treasurer. Our next goal is to buy a band vehicle (we out grew our mint-green 90's minivan). So if anyone has any leads on something that will drive across the country, fit 6 of us with all of our gear, let a 'Hag know.

the new banjo:

no more whale sounds!

Anarchist Bookfair:

We played the Saskatoon Anarchist Bookfair two years ago, and we're about to do it again this weekend:

MOSOFEST June 14-16, 2012

Yup, we're playing! So are our best buds Aunty Panty, total sperm donor material Bry Webb, Canada's favourite ginger BA JOHNSTON, cutie Shotgun Jimmie, among others!

The Ness Creek Line-Up featuring yours truly....

We hope to see you there!

pictures

I sometimes use my Dad's old Nokia camera from the 80's (the same one that shot all my family photos). I like how grainy the photos can look, but most of all I love the pictures that don't quite turn out or the photos that don't develop right:

The photos were taken at our video shoot. You can see the video HERE.

la radio

(taken Saturday night at OMFEST in the photobooth)

We will be on CFCR this evening from 5:00-5:30 pm talking about the CFCR sponsored event for International Women's Day tomorrow. You can listen live to us on 90.5 fm in Saskatoon or via the interwebs at www.cfcr.ca. More information / details on the event on Thursday HERE.

on the news!

Riki did a great job representing us on the news this week. We had some friends PVR it, so hopefully we can get some video evidence of it. She sang our song 1984 acoustically as well.

We've been sitting on the recorded version of this song for a few months now and haven't uploaded it, but here it is (in rough demo form):

did you get your tickets yet?

A huge thank you to OMINOCITY for supporting the local music scene! Come out and celebrate this Saturday.

We're on from 7:40-8:05 pm. Check out extra info HERE.

We finally got around to uploading all the tracks to our gospel album for you to listen to.

You can do so here: http://theseahags.bandcamp.com/

Also, we've added a new track called It Ain't Easy that we recorded back in October with local heart throb STEVE REED. You can find that one HERE.

And we are #2 on our local radio's community chart this week! woooooot!

In kinda related news.... we played TEAM CFCR at the Ness Creek Bonspiel this weekend. They beat us at the game, but then we beat them up after.

Eat Your Art Out

The Avenue Community Centre is gearing up for Eat Your Art Out Judy Garland. It's a queer arts festival in Saskatoon that is taking place next week/weekend. There is a variety of events taking place. Check them out HERE.

We are playing a set at 302 Lounge at 8 pm on Saturday February 11th. We're playing with TOVAH and Jeans Boots and JEREMY LANE.
