Back to J&J, and Visiting the Underworld

We are back from an extra day of recording at J&J studios, though we wish it was longer – we’re not quite ready to say goodbye to that lovely studio yet.

We had an amazing day adding the missing pieces to our album and we could not be happier with the results. All of us are so excited to share the finished product with you all; our new material is unlike anything we have previously released.

It’s been fun for us to giggle at each other and our ‘misheard lyrics’: “The warthog has risen above the kite that holds this world to leather(?!)”, which has helped to release stress from some hard-working sessions.


Speaking of what we've been up to this week, we are almost ready to go into Toybox Studio next week to record our song about Eurydice and the Underworld. It has been (and will continue to be) a very interesting project, which has been different to any other projects we have worked on in the past. The founder of the project, Richard Williams, wrote the original chords, which he then gave us to complete the song.

We have enjoyed writing lyrics and melodies to fit such a fascinating myth, and creating a song from another musician’s original music has turned out to be a large responsibility, which we are honoured to have been trusted with.


The rest of this week we will be finalising the song, and we will update you all after the recording.

Quick reminder about our acoustic set in the basement of The Louisiana this Friday for THE FLUX. Tickets will be £5 on the door. Doors 7.30pm, music from 8.30pm. More details here.
