Last night we received a pretty exciting e-mail, saying that Cloon is a finalist for the 8th Independent Music Awards in the category of best Hardrock/Metal song. We have no idea how big a deal this is, but with people like Peter Gabriel, Zakk Wylde, Suzanne Vega, Ice T & Roger Daltrey (and lots more) in the jury this has to be of some importance, right? :-) |

We are happy to announce that, as of TODAY, all previously released CLOON tracks will be FREE FOR DOWNLOAD! That's right. Absolutely free. But, and there is always a "but", if you would feel like donating us something for those free downloads, you are more than welcome to do so. Or if you just feel like supporting your favourite band, you can do that aswell! Just click on the moneyhat on top of this page. It will take you to our "donations" page, where you can donate ANY amount you want, and pay with credit card or paypal. If you would just like to download and pay nothing, that's fine too. All free downloads available on our LAST.FM page. |

So, we had some nice summer gigs. The Power Festival in La Louviere was nice. Always happy to play in Wallonië. Somehow they always make us feel very welcome there ... Kinky Star Olympics @ the Gentse Feesten was awesome. You can check out the whole live show on the Kinky Star Podcast right here. Fonnefeesten was cool too. Not too many people out there when we started, but by the end of the show there was a pretty good crowd. And now we just got back from Hellevoetsluis, where we headlined the second stage. The rain caused some technical problems on the main stage, so we were quite happy to play on the small one ... |

Worrrrking hard. You can see Cloon a couple of times this summer. After that, all our time and energy will go to our new album. So get ready for World Domination! |

Hitting the studio this week to start with the preproduction of our debut full-album. Hopefully we'll get some labels excited, so we can release our first full lenght baby by the end of this year. Your perfect X-mas present for 2008 ... |

A late happy 2008 to all of our Cloonville-residents. We are happy to announce that 2008 will be an amazing Cloon-year. We'll be hitting the studio in march to start with the pre-production of what will be our first full-lenght, which should be released somewhere after the summer. In the meantime, we'll be releasing one hell of a kickass video of "Phantom Days", directed by Fredy Polania. More updates coming soon ... |

Support Music for Life, and request "Phantom Days" on www.stubru.be !!! Yes we are in the list, so if you vote, and pay a lot of money for the good cause, they will play our stuff! Your money goes directly to the drinkin-water-program of the Red Cross. |

By the way, for those of you that have missed it ... Studio Brussel called us on tour with Clawfinger, a couple of minutes before hitting the stage of the first show. You can listen to it by clicking here. |

Back home from an amazing tour with the Claws! We had the time of our life, gigs we only could dream about and the best band we could ever imagine touring with. Thanx a million to the guys from Clawfinger for the support and friendship they've given us the past 2 weeks. If you want to check some cool tourpics, check out our myspace page . Lots of thanx to Tim and Ward aswell, for coming along and being the greatest crew to work with. We owe you guys bigtime! |

Yepyep. We're packed, set and ready to go kick some German, Swiss and Austrian ass. Only 2 days left until we hit the road with Clawfinger. Be sure to listen to Studio Brussel's VOLT next monday. If all goes well, they'll give us a call right before we get on stage (around 20h45), and if you want to read more about our touring adventures, be sure to check our blog on myspace (www.myspace.com/cloonband). If we can find the time and internet connections we'll post some cool stories there (if there are any to tell ofcourse). See you all back in November! That is if none of us fall asleep while they are driving, ofcourse. ;-) |

We had 2 great gigs in our home-area this week. Last Wednesday in Ghent, and this Saturday in Deinze. Both were really cool. Thanx to everyone that showed up. Next stop : Muziekodroom Hasselt. Our very first gig in Limburg (we know, it' a shame). Again, a show with free entrance, so no excuse to stay home. |

We told you we had big news coming up. Well, it has finally been confirmed : CLOON will be the main support act for CLAWFINGER during their European tour. 12 Shows in October, touring in Germany, Austria and Switserland. No need to say we are extremely happy with this. Hopefully this will open some doors for us ... |

Hi folks. For all of you living in The Netherlands ... we're invited by our friends Luuk & Sas to play at the Stompin' Festival in Hellevoetsluis!

Cloon has signed up with SELLABAND, a new website/concept which allows people to "invest" in bands they believe in. Believers pay $ 10,00 for a "share" , and when a band succeeds in finding 5.000 believers , the money will be used to record a professional CD with a top producer... every "Believer" receives a special limited edition CD. We know, 5.000 is a lot, but it's worth a shot ... |
