Those familiar with Glasgow band My Latest Novel (those who aren’t, you should be) will be pleased to hear that three members are working on a new project called Alphabetical Order Orchestra. The first track from the side-project was unveiled last year (and admittedly passed us by), and saw a lighter, folkier tone when compared with the post-rock arrangements of My Latest Novel.

A second track has been released, ‘The Corrections’, and I must say it has me excited for where this project goes. The more carefree attitude is still there, but there is also more than a nod to My Latest Novel, with the song treading the line between folk/indie rock and post rock.

The band have set up a Kickstarter project to fund a (currently untitled) four-track EP. There are no wacky expensive options, just pre-orders for the two formats (CD and 12″) that will also get your name printed in the ‘thank you’ section. A CD or 12″ for £5/10… you have nothing to lose.
