The Routes
28th August 2010

Here is a long overdue update!

Due to the increasing difficulties with
distance and scheduling
rehearsals/recording, The Routes have
parted ways with long serving bassist
Toru Nishimuta.
A new bass player will be announced in
the next month, so watch this space...
The debut gig for the new lineup will be
18th September at the Takatsuka Open Air
Festival. More details to follow...

The
Sazanami Label compilation album Wild
Sazanami Beat Vol.5 was released on 7th
July 2010. It features The Routes playing
a cover of The Standells song "Sometimes
Good Guys Don't Wear White". It also
features songs from King Salami and the
Cumberland 3, Hangee V, Los Peyotes,
Fadeaways, Clearasils, Goggle A and many
more...
It's available directly from Sazanami
Label, or from any of the following links
:
Amazon (Japan)
Disk Union (Japan)
Tower Records (Japan)
HMV (Japan)
