Quiet Life: EP CD Giveaway + Download Exclusive Tracks

May 10, 2010 2 Comments

2010 is going to be a BIG year for the band Quiet Life!

The Connecticut band, now headquartered in Portland, just released the 6-song EP ‘California Vacation’ (available on iTunes), is about to release a full-length, ‘Big Green,’ due this July, and brothers Sean and Ryan Spellman just got home from a U.S. tour acting as the backing band for Port O’Brien.

And to celebrate, Quiet Life has given The South Rail some exclusive tracks and prizes for our readers including an autographed, hand-made EP!

First off, picking a single off of ‘Big Green’ is definitely a tough choice, but the track ‘Let It Go’ has turned into the LP’s unofficial single, recently getting rotation on Sirius XMU and catching our attention for sure. ‘Big Green’ is jam packed with songs of equal power and catchiness, from start to finish… Click here to request the song ‘Let It Go’ on XMU and for a LIMITED TIME, get an early taste of ‘Big Green’ and download the track below:

Download: Quiet Life ‘Let It Go’

Autographed EP Giveaway: The ‘California Vacation’ EP is only available digitally via iTunes and on a 200, hand-printed run of CDs which will ONLY be available at shows… and here! We have a few of the hand-made copies to giveaway and one AUTOGRAPHED BY THE BAND!

TO ENTER: Simply email us your full name and mailing address to thesouthrail@gmail.com with the Subject as “Quiet Life EP Giveaway”

Contest Ends Monday, May 17th, 2010 at midnight. One grand prize winner (the autographed copy) and 2 runner-ups (unsigned copy) will be selected randomly and notified via email May 18th. One entry per email address only. We will only be shipping to winners within the 48 states, so U.S entries only (sorry). The South Rail nor Quiet Life are responsible for items lost or damaged during shipping.

GOOD LUCK!

From ‘California Vacation,’ check out the single ‘Downtown’ below (for a limited time)… and if you dig what you here, pick up the EP here on iTunes or at a Quiet Life show near you:
