Here's a copy of Jessie's message to the Splendid Mailing List...

Hello Splendid People,

Another quick hello to all our friends. Austin is nice and hot now. Angie reports very hot weather from Melbourne. I will be returning to Australia on March 3rd. From there we will shoot the Come Clean video and begin another tour of Australia. We will be playing in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane. No exact dates are known at this time. Angie has also retrieved some Frente 7 inches that will be for sale. More details will be available soon on that. It was reported that the Buffy Cd's version of Charge has charted in Germany! Very cool. Talk soon.

Here's a copy of Angie's message to the Splendid Mailing List...

Hello Splendid People,

We are obviously still here in Australia. Sorry we have not written in or replied to any mail lately. We have been very busy here, playing shows,drinking lots and strategizing our next moves. We are going to release Come Clean as the next single in mid March. We have been received really well here. People are enjoying the live shows and some radio stations have started playing the record again. We are playing with a new rhythm section. Bill McDonald from Frente on bass, and Pete Luscombe on drums. We will be back in America soon. We are staying overseas till the end of March. Jesse will be back in America for a few weeks in February and will be answering mail soon. Thanks for all the mail and good wishes. We will write again soon. Please excuse the briefness of this email but we just thought we would give you an update.

From everyone here at Splendid Online, Happy Holidays! Splendid are currently continuing their Australian tour (new tour dates are posted in the Travels section). Their only way of communicating with us is through their Aussie label, Mushroom Records, so news and replying to letters have been (and will be) slow. Until their return to the U.S., we hope all their Australian fans are having a great time catching their shows because we hear Splendid are loving the response their getting! See ya in 2000!

Australian fans have something to be happy about because on 11/10, Angie and Jessie flew out from Los Angeles to Australia to do about 4+ months of touring in the area!! Current tour dates are posted in the Travels section. And, in case you haven't seen how the official Splendid website is coming along, check it out: www.splendidtheband.com

Lots of things to update you all on! First, the Luna Park show went beautifully as expected. Angie and Jesse played acoustically on several songs from their recently released (in Australia) album, Have You Got A Name For It, including "Better Things," "I'm No Better," and their first single "Less Than Zero." The night before, Angie and Jesse could be seen on stage at the fictional club, The Bronze, on the season premiere of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer." The episode, entitled "The Freshmen," featured Splendid performing their wonderful ballad "You and Me." Click here to see photos from the shoot.

As we mentioned, Have You Got A Name For It made its Australian debut on 10/11. A US release is still TBD but stateside fans can either order the album at various Australian online stores or get a small taste of Splendid on the soundtrack to "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" due on 10/19. Full details are in the discography section. 

Here's what Angie and Jesse are listening to these days:
Belle & Sebastian - Boy with the Arab Strap (Matador) 
Massive Attack - Mezzanine (Virgin)
Tricky with DJ Muggs and Grease - Juxtapose (Island)
