Pitchfork

True to their chosen moniker, the Little Ones come in small packages. Their recorded debut in 2006 was an EP called Sing Song, and the combo's next offering will be another EP, this one called Terry Tales & Fallen Gates. It comes out April 8 in the U.S. (the day before in the UK) via the L.A. band's own Branches Recording Collective, and it will be available digitally, on tour, and at select independent stores.

The Little Ones are self-releasing Terry Tales & Fallen Gates after being dropped from EMI earlier this year. That business snafu held up the release of the band's still forthcoming debut full-length, Morning Tide. But do not fear, little ones, for the band plans to release the record this summer after its U.S. co-headlining tour with Ra Ra Riot. The tour starts April 5 in San Diego, and the Little Ones will follow it with a handful of European dates.

Terry Tales & Fallen Gates:
