Good evening travellers.
Just to let you know I've uploaded clips of the remaining album tracks - these are rough mixes but they only need a spot of tweaking, so you can get a real taster now of what it's all going to sound like. Very exciting.
I also have a gig on January 17th, details aren't confirmed yet but I'm playing at the opening of the new library in Crawley. Yep that's right, they're having a band night to open the library - a tad ironic I know but I love the idea! I'll put up more info as soon as I have it, and hope to see many of you there!
Take care my pretties.

Just a very quick one to say that I've made the home/news page into a blog format - as you can see. I've transferred over the old entries which is a tad confusing because all the dates are today, but I've added the original dates to the titles so I'm sure you'll handle it. Now you can comment and stuff! Awesome.

Well, I didn't win the
Mercury competition, but thank you all so much for voting - one of
these days I'll get the recognition I deserve. (Mwahaha, cue sinister
organ music, etc.)
The album is so near completion now. I doubt
you'll believe that after the false hope I've been dishing out for so
long, but it's actually true this time. There's one track left to mix,
then we just have to tweak them all and master them and bam!!! - it'll
be done. So, it should only take a few more evenings to finish
everything off, which, due to busy schedules will translate to a few
more weeks, but still - not long now. I can't wait to unleash it on
the world, it is worth waiting for, I promise.
And I shall take
this opportunity to say that Dan (le co-producer extraordinaire) has
spent nearly as much time and effort and energy on this project as I
have, which makes him trés fabulous in my book. Even though after a
year and a half of listening to them, he still can't remember what any
of the songs are called or how they go. What does that say about my
ability to write a catchy tune? Hmm.
Mailing list subscribers will get a discount on the album, so if you want in on that, sign up now! If you wait 'til after it's released, you'll miss out. And if you haven't noticed that I have an artist page on Facebook, become a fan!
In
other (somewhat random) news, I dressed up as Wonderwoman on
Wednesday. There was a good reason, but I can't be bothered to explain
it right now. Point is, I looked awesome, and you'll have to trust me
on that 'cause there ain't no photos. Thank goodness.
For now, adieu.

VOTE FOR MEEEEEE! Bonjour mes petits filous...
I have more exciting news to impart! I'm one of the five finalists in Radio Mercury's 'Next Big Thing' competition! The
five artists and their songs will be featured on Adam O'Neill's
Drivetime Show each day from Monday to Friday next week (my day is Thursday) and the public will be able to vote for their favourite on Mercury's website. The winner will be announced on air on Friday 17th October.
In case you miss Thursday's show, I have uploaded the whole song ('Just Me') to the music page. REPEAT: You can hear 'Just Me' here in its entirety, for two weeks only! This is the first time I've uploaded a whole finished track from the album, so enjoy it while it lasts. :P
Voting opens on Monday - please vote for me and hassle everyone you know to vote for me as well!
Much love and a healthy dose of competitiveness,

Two things to report: 1) Italy is amazing.
2)
I have added a very rough demo of a new song to the music page, free to
download. I now have the ability to record files small enough that the
website uploader doesn't eat me alive, so you can expect more free
tracks in the future. At the moment, the song is 'For Freedom', lyrics
are on this page.
If you download it, leave a comment in the guestbook! I'm feeling lonely. :(
Ciao bellas,
