// 1. B A Part EP released today
Attentive readers might have in mind that Thomas Dybdahl is about to conquer the UK with his music. Starting today, you can download his first UK release, the B A Part EP, including something that has been a dear request from the fans – a live recording.
You can download the digital EP at Amazon or at almost any online music store including iTunes (Norway/Denmark excluded), Musicload, Rhapsody, 7 Digital and Play.

// 2. Concert in Copenhagen almost sold out
While you download the EP, you should know that if you were planning to see Thomas Dybdahl live at Copenhagen’s new Koncerthuset on Sept 14th (accompanied by the Danish radio orchestra) you really need to hurry. Almost all of the tickets have already been sold yet. You can yours at billetnet.dk.

// 3. More live shows: Latitude festival, Unearthed and more
Chances are that those remaining tickets have finally been sold a few minutes after this newsletter arrived. Don’t worry, this is not your last chance to see Thomas somewhere across Europe this year. Mr. Dybdahl and his amazing band will play at Latitude festival near Suffolk on July 18th, and have been invited to Unearthed, presented by Music Week. Read the article here

// 4. Thomas and his giraffe
This heading might sound a little strange to you, but here you go:
A guy from Thomas Dybdahl’s current home town Stavanger, Ola Helland, has accepted a bet that he will be able to collect 1.000.000 hand-drawn giraffes until 2011. Anyone who wants can contribute to his collection, and there is no restriction in quantity, so you can well take your pens out and draw him 1.000 giraffes for a start.
Thomas has taken the chance to draw his own one. See it at http://olahelland.net/giraffes/?id=6865 and be sure to add up your own giraffes.

// 5. John Wayne live video
A little goodie from a recent concert has been put up for your viewing and listening pleasure. See and hear John Wayne recorded live at The Borderline, London from May 13th at the official Dybdahl YouTube channel

// 6. Twitter address change
You know, Thomas tries hard to accomplish modern digital life. For you all being able to still follow him, we need to let you know that Thomas changed his twitter address to twitter.com/thomasdybdahl . All other places have stayed the same.

Hope this summer’s getting a lot of you people out there to see Thomas and his band live on European stages. In all cases: spread the word!


All the best

Thomas Dybdahl Newsletter June

Hey there,

seems things are getting more serious – here is another issue of our newsletter. Our today’s update includes three imperatives:

1. Vote for Thomas on BBC Radio 6Music
2. See Thomas and his band live on Friday in London
3. Read Thomas on the web
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

// 1. Vote for Thomas on BBC Radio 6Music
You finally have the chance to promote Thomas Dybdahl all on your own – no need for tricky managers, booking agencies and bribe money (which has never been used anyway), you do it all by yourself.
Visit http://www.bbc.co.uk/6music/shows/steve_lamacq/ and go to the bottom of the page to vote for Thomas Dybdahl’s ‘B A Part’ to be played on the radio! Alternatively, you can write an e-mail to lamacq.6music@bbc.co.uk with the subject ‘Thomas Dybdahl’.
If Thomas wins, and surely he will with your supportiveness, he will get one play in each mainstream daytime show next week on BBC Radio 6Music. One vote is possible per e-mail address. I will not say that you should use as many e-mail addresses as you can possibly find to enter the voting. I think that would be against the rules.

//2. See Thomas and his band live on Friday in London
If you’re anywhere near London this Friday (06/26/2009), and be it only the right hemisphere, get yourself out to come to the official opening of The Garage. Thomas Dybdahl and his full band will be playing there to support Peter, Bjorn and John. The concert starts at 7:30 pm. See thomasdybdahl.com for buying tickets.

//3. Read Thomas on the web
Thomas finally got more intimate with modern communication tools, to say the least. He has finally started writing a blog and posts messages to Twitter. Have a look of what he has to say. Be invited to join his facebook page/group as well!
Here a summary of where you can find the guy:
