Busy Bank Holiday & Count Down To Single Release

Hope you all had a great weekend. Ours was a busy one to say the least.

Saturday we travelled over to Gloucestershire to play at the Stroud Fringe festival. We weren’t sure what to expect from it, being a festival we had never been to, but it really was wonderful. Thank you so much to everyone who came to listen, chat and buy music. You all made it such a brilliant day!

One short sleep later we (Sally and Natalie) were back on the motorway in order to get to Insomnia 55 (a gaming festival in Coventry) in time for doors opening. We were dragged along by our younger brother who didn’t want to go by himself, but we actually really enjoyed ourselves and spent most of our time in the retro area playing strange Japanese fighting games, Mario Kart and the like. We’ve also gone and bought ourselves a new games console (so see you all in a few months!)

Monday, it was back to work again. We performed live on Bradley Stoke Radio and promoted our single launch on Friday. It was a bit of a sad evening, having realised it would also be our last radio session with Anja. We held in the tears and got through it, just about.

Which leads us to this Friday when we’re releasing our single “Come Undone/ What Is Left” at the Louisiana, Bristol. We’ve got two amazing supports: Bristol’s own I Am Horse and Della Lupa from Brighton. It will be our last show in Bristol with Anja so we’re making it something special with plans for decorations, projections and collaborations. E-tickets are still available to buy. Can't wait to see you guys there!

Acoustic Festival of Britain

Last weekend we got to spend at Uttoxeter Racecourse for the Acoustic Festival of Britain. This was the second year we had been invited to play and when we arrived it almost felt like we had never left. This time round we were joined by friends and fellow Bristol based musicians Bashema, Jodie Stadden and Ria Timkin.

We also managed to beat last years record for tent assembling which turned out to be impeccable timing, as moments later we were caught in the middle of a thunder storm. Just typical that we forgot our raincoats - although sun hats apparently make very effective umbrellas.

After the storm finally eased on Saturday we headed over to the Sessions Beer Tent where we had the pleasure of performing (drumless), and on the following day we played an acoustic set with drums in the Big Top tent (which was completely solar powered!). Thanks to everyone there for listening, buying our music and giving such lovely compliments. It was really nice to share the stage with all our Bristol friends too. They were so amazing.

The rest of the time we got to experience other parts of the festival where we met lots of pirates dressed up for Mark Radcliffe and Galleon Blast's set later on that day, and some rather gothic morris dancers.
