Right Time at the Right Place, Money is Time
Dear friends, old and new!
The past few months have been some of the most interesting and chaotic days for us on the road as we made our way through the US back to Canada in preparation for our upcoming Europe tour which starts in less than a month!
As we drove off further and further away from our beloved California we did manage to run into many more new friends who helped us along our way back to Canada.
Connections and art lovers who we will meet again upon our return!
It feels like we have come full circle from when we first left the Great North in search of the famous and dreamy Hotel California. Something we did manage to find and be part of; something that changed us but reaffirmed our beliefs and our music! Driving back into Ottawa and seeing the first bars that we ever played in after leaving Saudi back in 2002 ; it's a weird feeling. We've made this our stepping stone between transitions as we finish old chapters and turn to a new blank page, starting a new phase in our lives and careers.
From Saudi Arabia, to Canada, to California and back to Canada now we take the biggest leap as a full fledged, full time band and company.
Armed with our experiences, music, our good friend and photographer Chris Evans, the backing of our own Olystis "On The run Studios" in LA run by our very own John Langford and Yianni, as well as the hoards of great wishes, energy and love from all our friends and family I would call Clepto in Europe unstoppable. We will only rest when we cannot walk any further, until we have made it to the top of the mountain, until we have won and you've only made us stronger and more relevant. I feel humbled and proud that we've done so much and gone so far. Some people say you have to be at the right place at the right time but I say the right place is here, the right time is now. Sure, sometimes luck and fate smile upon you but there is no logic in sitting cross legged to wait for that to happen. After all, they also say 'Time is Money!' Aint it?
It feels great to know that no matter how much we have, even if we have nothing, we can rely on you, our friends, fans and family to give us the extra push,
the extra confidence and courage to continue on this journey and this life that we chose.
Thank you for everything, literally EVERYTHING you've given us! Now we cross our fingers take a deep breath and dive into the beautiful unknown! See you there!
