Deers, from Madrid, have today announced that they have changed their name to Hinds, for legal reasons. Read a quote below from the band explaining the move.

“This is sadly the most official post we’ve ever made: We have to change our name.

 We mean…they force us to. We received an email from a Canadian lawyer saying that our name created confusion with his band’s name. And that name is not even Deers (LOL). We tried our best, really, but we have no choice. So…

Okay!!! Let’s take this with a smile 🙂 !!!!

Deers are now…Hinds!

And we are still the same people, we are even the same animal! Unbelievable!! We don’t usually ask you guys for anything, but PLEASE you’d really make this easier for us if you shared this amazing info. Let’s have a super 2015!!

Hinds

Sorry & Thank You

See you on tour!!”

Ahead of their next mini-tour across Europe, which kicks off with a special London appearance at the DIY All-Dayer at the Laundry this Saturday, Deers proudly present the AA-side from their second single ‘BARN’, ’Between Cans’. A softly lilting and lovelorn melody alongside the band’s cacophony of harmonies means that the track perfectly compliments and contrasts with the raucous ‘Castigadas En El Granero’.

‘BARN’ will be available digitally and physically on November 3rd, via Lucky Number and our friends Mom+Pop in the US.  Limited to just 750 copies worldwide the vinyl can be pre-ordered here. http://smarturl.it/barnvinyl

In their latest video, Deers indulge in a little bit of role-play, as they elaborate further; “Tim, Mark, Brendon and Cole playing ‘Castigadas En El Granero’ from Deers. The song belongs to a single called BARN, the video was directed by Alex Delucas and the left hand of Carleone Films and it was shot by Alex and Jorge Leon.”

Donning workers’ overalls and undoubtedly thrift-shop-found stitched name-tags, there’s an Americana feel to the proceedings, as the band run through a typically energetic performance that belies their lo-fi charm.
