Minus the Bear fans rejoice! The band has just made available via iTunes, Amazon, and Emusic their self-released EP Acoustics. The EP contains previously recorded tracks like “Pachuca Sunrise”, “Burying Luck”, “Ice Monster” and in acoustic versions, along with a new Minus the Bear track “Guns and Ammo”. The EP will also be available in physical form, being sold on the upcoming tour that kicks off today, Oct 8th in Spokane, WA.

Minus the Bear will be in Austin for this year’s Fun Fun Fun Fest, for those of you might have forgotten. I sure haven’t, and am more than excited about seeing this band again.
