Just in case I have friends still on here who don't follow my Insta... I'm currently looking for a room to rent in a house share in London. Please let me know if you have/hear of anything going! xx

So pleased that after over 10 years making music together, we finally have a record of our collaboration! Sample all the tracks via the link and hear me living out my deep house diva fantasy on Hand in Glove. And come see us live this weekend at @HoxtonHall for the proper launch!
Our debut EP is out now! Five original reinventions of iconic tracks by The Smiths, Fleetwood Mac and Simon & Garfunkel. Listen now and purchase at thecoveryard.com/shop.

That's right! To mark 25 years since the 'death' of Britpop, we're gonna be chopping up, mashing together and reanimating its corpse in a feel-good night of nostalgia and iconoclasm. Come for the hits, stay for the weird stuff. Early-bird tix onsale now: hoxtonhall.co.uk/event/the-c…
Support our album Kickstarter and maybe we'll do KAROLAOKE again...... maybe. probably. (5 days and only £615 to go!) kickstarter.com/projects/789…
A year later, KAROLAOKE returned bigger and better at Palm 2, Clapton, with new arrangements, mashups and original 'anti-carols' from our team of composer-performers. Listen to @jsphnstphnsn's devastating and deeply relevant 'Through the bleak midwinter': youtube.com/watch?v=68BHPMoA…

Spent the last few months working on this, using extra material generated in our show The Great and the Grand. Low-key psychedelic text generated from collaging fragments from family histories, pitch pipes, improvised percussion. Click through to watch the whole vid on Youtube...
