There's been a lot of wonderful word-of-mouth spreading for the band, helped recently by the fact that the single 'The Last Of The Melting Snow' was nominated for an Ivor Novello award for 'Best Song Musically & Lyrically'; the first of it’s kind for an unpublished artist.

Full Time Hobby will be re-releasing the debut album on October 5th in brand new packaging and with an extra bonus disc of previously unreleased material (stay posted for more news on that) as well as issuing the first-ever vinyl release of the album. Be sure to keep checking the Full Time Hobby online storefor an exclusive pre-order of this album with a t-shirt.
