It was a really emotional experience to attend the premier of Broken English, the new film celebrating the life and art of Marianne Faithful. I was so moved to see her again, even if it was only on screen.

I named her Autumn-I was 16, she was a sunburst guitar and the name just stuck...This guitar changed the course of my life. I played it for hours. I slept with it, wrapping my legs around it. I hugged its neck whenever I could. We were inseparable.

The third chapter of my Substack is available to read focussing on DEPRAVITY in my live shows for Hunter. Hunter demanded something new from me. My guitar sound on this record was a departure from the cleaner prettier tones I had used before... [read more on my Substack]

Static music seems to upend my sense of perspective. It feels like a middle finger to the rigidity of the universe. When I listen, I feel like I’m escaping. This music gets me closer to a feeling of belonging to something bigger. [Read more on my Substack]

In my experience, the guitar isn’t a weapon; it doesn’t exude strength and power. Rather, it represents decay and dramatic rupture—it’s a scream, a theatre stage where I can act out all of my basest impulses, free from any self-consciousness...
