LONDON-BASED ARTISTS, MUSICIANS, PERFORMERS!
Anyone interested in playing an (unpaid) gig mid/end Feb? Broadly experimental vibes.
It's in an art-gallery in Vauxhall. Something that engages with the theme of 'law / dissensus / protest' would be ideal but not required.
Get in touch if interested!

A cheesy folk cover album featuring Norah Jones being one of the best albums of 2025 was absolutely not on my bingo card.

Well I thought this was pretty funny, but apparently no dice whatsoever.
If you go on @kickstarter.com you'll quickly see that there is a choice between funding our latest LP/book, and funding a new Thundercats role-playing game. I know where my money's going, Lion-O.
In all seriousness - its the last few days, so please share!

Just backed this. The soundtrack sounds wonderful. Please consider backing, even if it's just chucking the project a quid. Or just £4 gets you the book and soundtrack as downloads. Physical tiers all look great too. Absolute bargain, and supporting a top label at the same time.
