I’m really proud to say that my new EP, ‘Solace’ is out now!
bofbriz.bandcamp.com/album/solace
(or wherever you get music!)
I’ve been trying to offer a Summer of ‘Solace’, releasing songs from this EP….
A sweet, earnest, small offering of alt hip hop from Bristol.

Lovely to see this vid get some love! ❤️ it's about cooperative power, as contrasted with the domination of hierarchical power (and also, deer!) Thanks for sharing @muz4now.com 🌱🙏🎧

Hey you! Yes, you! 🫵
You're into this whole "making music" thing? You're a solo artist or you're in a band? Then this is for you!

It's not much and will not launch you into super-stardom, but here are three simple things you can do to get your music heard; all of it for free, no obligations!

I hope my EP 'Solace' gave at least a few people some solace, truly. I'm glad I made it.

B sits in front of a slatted screen. Her hair is messy curly, the kind of hair that won't do what you tell it. It falls around her shoulders, shiny golden against the black silky shirt she's wearing. The muted but colourful leaves on her shirt also stand out against the cream-coloured screen. B's wearing a black velvet face-mask, and ornately decorated ski-style goggles, adorned with pearls and gold and silver, with a tree of life in the centre.

High masking
B's face is covered by a velvet face mask and an ornately decorated ski-style goggles. Her hair is golden, curly, not gonna lie, a little messy. She wears a dark green velvet blazer and slightly sparkly black leggings. And her faithful grey Etnies. She's standing by a patg. In the backgound we can see Bristol's iconic Clifton Suspension Bridge.

B stands on a green ridge, overlooking Bristol's most famous bridge, Clifton Suspension is. B's wearing grey hoody, grey Etnies, black leggings, and a black velvet face mask, in addition to ornately decorated ski-style goggles. The sky is blue with dramatic white a gret clouds. It's big, you guys, the sky. It fills almost the entire top half of the frame of the photo.

B stands next to some stone carvings in a clearing in a woodland. She's wearing baggy blue jeans and a grey hoody. Her messy curly hair spills out from under a hood crocheted from rainbow pastels. Her face is covered by a black velvet face mask, and an ornately decorated set of ski-style goggles.

“She’s taken under solace,
Into the library of the Cosmopolis”
(from my song 'Taken under Solace') bofbriz.bandcamp.com/album/solace
I’m a recovered (!?!) hyperlexic, and so this metaphor appealed to me, this idea the library of a city of souls.
