Mice On Stilts are excited to announce the release of their debut album Hope For A Mourningout today.

This 7-piece collaboration traverse genre distinctions to create their own unique sound - described by one reviewer as “a sombre, subtle and slow-to-grow opus that virtually exudes a cinematic aura others of their kind often only allude to.”
 
The 2013 debut EP, An Ocean Held Me was met with high praise from listeners and reviewers alike. Founded on ideas of darkness, empathy and catharsis, these themes extend into their forthcoming coming album, Hope For A Mourning, which capitalises on the diverse range of instruments mastered by these seven skilled musicians.

Lead single Khandallah is a great example of the band's ability to conjure eerie ambient soundscapes building to transcendental heights.
 
Lauded for their stirring presence as a live band, Mice On Stilts have reached beyond the confines of music and collaborated with local artists, photographers, writers and designers to create an art book to accompany the new album, the contents within a direct response to the engaging lyrics and emotional scope of Hope For a Mourning.
 
Hope For A Mourning is released via Aeroplane Music Records and available for purchase on iTunes and all good digital service providers. Hope For A Mourning CDs and books with album download codes are now for sale at Flying Out record store.
 
Mice On Stilts tour dates to be announced soon.
