Brakes just sent out an email update. I love Brakes and was VERY happy to hear that they're currently recording a new album, so I now pass along the news to you:
Brakes are currently holed up in a recording studio in Nashville, Tennessee in the throws of recording their much anticipated second album. Reports so far indicate that things are sounding lush. But Brakes are not satisfied with only recording an album over the summer, no, as soon as the finishing touches have been applied they are flying to Paris to start their European tour of summer festivals:Visit Brakes on MySpace and/or go check out their shirts and merch online. I definitely need one of those "Hi how are you" shirts.

They are indeed in Nashville - I've been spotting them at shows around town (most recently Gomez on Sunday), and they actually just played an impromptu gig at the Basement last night. I caught them at an in-store at our fabulous local indie shop, Grimey's, two weeks ago - I have a few picutures here.
"Spring Chicken", a new one they've been playing, is PHENOMENAL. The album should rock.
