New Gig @ Sticky Fingers 4/12
Tuesday, 4 December 2007

We have a new gig coming up TONIGHT at Sticky Fingers! Sorry for letting you know on so short notice. There will be three other bands playing other then us so you dont wanna miss out on this one! Bring your friends, grab a cold one and listen to some good music!

//Centen State

Update!
Tuesday, 23 October 2007

There are going to be some changes in our line-up from now on. William has decided to leave the band due to other priorities and lack of time. We all thank him for his time in the band and wish him good luck in the future.

This brings us to the question - Do we really need a 5th member? the answer is no! in order to avoid spending more time on search for a bassplayer that is willing to commit we decided to rearrange our original line-up and let Patrik mantle the roll as our new bassplayer.

Centen State is now a 4-man band! Stay tuned! =P

CENTEN STATE

Update!
Saturday, 3 March 2007

So, whats going on!?! first of all our basplayer Daniel has left the band due to other more important things in life. (What's more important than music, we wonder?) Thank you Daniel for you'r time in the band and good luck in the future! I guess that officially leaves us without a basplayer meaning that we are in need of a new one! So, if you are interested or might know someone who are, please send us an e-mail at info@centenstate.com

The second thing is that we are still working on our EP and we are aiming for a release later this spring along with our new website. Keep checking back for updates! //.::Centen State::.
