Her Name Is Calla Go On Hold

November 3, 2008

Following the re-release of ‘Condor and River’, Leicester/Leeds band Her Name Is Calla have decided to give it a rest for at least a year.

Being divided between two counties has certainly been a contributing factor behind the decision, but the principle reason has been ‘quite serious health issues,’ as announced enigmatically by founder member Thom Corah. He has also reassured fans that the hiatus does not mean a complete halt, just ‘a slowing of pace’.

‘Calla played their last gig for the foreseeable future at Holy Trinity Church, Leeds this Saturday, a suitably sombre affair, which was attended by members of I Like Trains and Glissando as well as a good many well-wishing fans.

Though it is unclear as to when we will see ‘Calla again, it is fairly certain we shall see them again, in one form or another.

‘Condor and River’ is available on this 12″ split with Maybeshewill from Gizeh Records.
