MyLittlePony change name and announce tour dates

Changes afoot in the multi-legged pop combo. Rather than try and explain it all ourselves here is a statement from the band:

After five years of touring and making music, norwegian pop band mylittlepony reinvent themselves and name their new band after their previous album: Making Marks!

mylittlepony has played hundreds of shows throughout Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Germany, Belgium, France, Austria, Czech Republic, Italy, Spain, Portugal, USA and Canada, including SXSW 2011 and other prestigious events. Their debut album "Think Too Much" (2008) won the award for Best International Album at Spain's Premio Pop Eye in 2009, and was released worldwide. Last winter "Making Marks" was released to great critical acclaim, and the new band will continue to play songs from both these albums as well as new material.

All in a slightly new wrapping as Making Marks has four full time members, down one from the previous five that made up mylittlepony. This gives room for more vocal harmonies and more synthesizer fun. Making Marks first public apperances will be on a tour of Italy in April, followed by a one off in their native Oslo. See below for dates. As of now, Making Marks are focusing their attention on creating music live, but they do plan to make some recorded versions of this music in the near future
.
