📣 A little bit of news from me 📣
I’ve written a book !! 😮😮
It’s about some really important people from the 20th century avant-garde who’ve had a massive impact on the way your favourite pop music is made.
I met some super cool people (see pics for a couple of highlights) and went on a little adventure to see some very interesting places.
It’s been a joy and a privilege to work with @FaberBooks to make this happen. Cover by Robbie Porter. It comes out in August….. Pre-order and info: uk.bookshop.org/p/books/ever…

@elizabethalker A selection of songs from Mendelssohn. Tuning in now to Radio 3. Catching a lovely moment. Splendid.

Delighted that @BBCRadio3 will be at @glasshouseicm this weekend to celebrate Steve Reich at 90. Live concerts, interviews with the man himself, and much more besides. Plus: a Late Junction birthday mixtape and a special, Reich-themed edition of Music Map. theglasshouseicm.org/seasons…

August has been busy talking all about Everything We Do Is Music at some brilliant festivals (@GreenManFest, @WakeFestival & @EOTR). It’s been truly so amazing to meet everyone who has come to talks and bought the book. You’re all amazing 💕

Unclassified on @BBCRadio3 is one of the best shows on the radio and the latest episode is amazing. When @elizabethalker's introduction to the first track includes the sentence ‘and a squirrel cooking a meal on her stove’ you know it’s a must listen
