After a four month European tour with Wintersleep, front man Paul Murphy is set to release Postdata, the debut album of his side project of the same name. Postdata is a family affair of sorts, as it sees Murphy partner with brother Michael. The two create a unique kind of melancholy in their sound. Though the album doesn’t hit the shelves until January 26, you can preview three songs from the album on their new site @ www.postdatamusic.com

In related news, Paul, Loel, Tim, Mike, & Jon have just announced a tentative release date of May 2010 for Wintersleep’s newest album. The as of yet unnamed effort is the followup to 2008′s Welcome To The Night Sky, which earned the band a Juno for best new artist. The guys are already in studio.
