The members of Faraquet have announced plans to re-unite for a Brazilian tour this September and are gathering recordings from their various singles to look into re-issuing them onto a CD compilation. The Brazilian shows will feature a line-up featuring original members, Chad Molter and Devin Ocampo -- but not Jeff Boswell. However, the band hopes to play DC area shows upon the release of the CD with the full original line-up. Faraquet tour dates will be posted on the tours page as soon as they are confirmed.

Fans of Medications, fear not. According to the band members, the Faraquet reunion (Chad and Devin are in both Medications and Faraquet), and news of drummer Andy Becker's recent departure, do not spell the end of Medications. Chad and Devin will continue to move forward with their writing and hope to record a new Medications album later this year or early next.

Meanwhile, Andy Becker has started a new label called What Delicate Recordings which will make its debut with releases from avant - rockers, The Rude Staircase and Condor Moments in September and October respectively.
