'I specifically remember doing an arrangement of Silent Noon... the type of vocal harmony we found together is now a trademark of our work.' - Alex Young (Music, 2005)

Lush to dive back into our first musical HERE yesterday & HEAR our song Come Home played by a 70-piece orchestra, beautifully sung by the gorgeous @lottieclitherow Jonathan Stevens & full chorus. Epic!
Thanks for a gorgeous afternoon @sitz_musicals @LMTOrch @BishopsgateInst

And here he is, inspiring us all as we made a research trip with the lovely students from Cumbria Uni. This was a wonderful day, full of joy and amazement.
Thank you, Ian. We shan’t forget you and your brilliant soul and work. To quote you quoting Kurt - “who’d have thought it.”
Deeply saddened to hear we have lost Ian Hunter.
With Littoral Arts, he fiercely & generously protected Dadaist artist Kurt Schwitters’ legacy & Merz Barn at Cylinders Farm, Cumbria.
Ian was a fountain of knowledge. His enthusiasm & love for art & human creativity was electric.
We will treasure our time with Ian, as we developed our first musical Here. He told such wonderful stories of Kurt & those he lived with on the farm. His eyes would light up, as if we were meeting Kurt himself.
We all recreated a picture - Ian, with partner Celia, on the right.

Re. the joke I was TRYING to tell @alexdeboo in the rain at the night bus stop in my hood. She quite frankly didn’t deserve the time and effort i put in.
Well. Here it is in print to haunt her forever.
Everyone please tell her this joke whenever you see her.
