Back in January of this year, which seems like an awful long time ago now, Erland & The Carnival released their debut self-titled record through Full Time Hobby. We reviewed it here. Now, 8 months later, they are to release a bonus slash deluxe edition of the record complete with b-sides and early EP tracks and various other things like that.

We've got a pair of tickets to give away for the band's show at Cecil Sharp's House in London later later this week, on September 26, which is a Sunday. We've also got a copy of the expanded album for you. Full tour dates are below.

The record comes out on October 5 - solely digitally - with the eight bonus tracks available to play below in that there SoundCloud player. It'll be on sale for the price of a standard digital album, at £7.99, by the way. You can download one of these songs, which is 'Arabian Sea'. Get to it...
