-[Release Notes]

Like many of us, Dan Sioui is obsessed with the 1982 classic American
Fool by John Cougar Mellencamp. But unlike the rest of us, Dan was so
exalted by the album he booked time at Hive Studios in Vancouver (Black
Mountain, Pride Tiger) with no songs and no band in order to express the
musical inspiration within him. The resulting record was a departure
from Dan? earlier work in Vancouver post punk band All State Champion
and marked the beginning of Carpenter. And what a glorious beginning it
was. Thank you, John Cougar.

Enlisting some of Vancouver\'s finest players Kelly Burnham (ex By A
Thread), Ryan Howlett (ex Speaking of Heroes) and J.J. Heath (ex
Daggermouth) Carpenter was born and has since flourished. Focusing on a
rootsy, rock feel while retaining the intensity of their punk/hardcore
roots, Carpenter has built a substantial fan base across Western Canada
with compelling lyrics, a monumental live show and the ability to appeal
to listeners of varying musical styles. Recently, they\'ve shared the
stage with Minus the Bear, Attack In Black, No Means No and The Living
End among others.

Lyrically, Carpenter paints pictures of the Canadian rural landscape and
highlights the struggles of the independent farmer. The band is a
vehement messenger against the corporate based Agribusiness industry and
promotes sustainable farming practices and the support of organizations
such as Canadian Organic Growers and Farm Folk City Folk. It was this
dedication and commitment to a rural lifestyle that propelled Carpenter
into the sights of the Jack Daniels Distillery who featured the band in
a 2007/2008 ad campaign across the U.S. Carpenter was also part of
Vancouver\'s Live Earth concert highlighting the devastating effects of
climate change. Most recently, the band has been approached by Farm Aid
and is in negotiations to perform at their 2008 concert alongside Willie
Nelson, Neil Young and ?John Mellencamp.

In the fall of 2007, Carpenter entered the legendary Mushroom Studios
(Led Zeppelin, Heart, Sam Roberts) in Vancouver to record their first
full-length album. Co-produced and engineered by Shawn Penner and Aaron
Nordean (Bend Sinister, The Februarys, Three Inches of Blood), the album
has 10 new songs of anthemic rock n roll music with a message. Recently
signed to Smallman Records in Canada, the album ?aw of the Land?is
scheduled for release in June 2008.
