THEE SPIVS It's true (Emergency Films 2010)

I'm delighted to announce that I'll be working with another band on the Damaged Goods label called Thee Spivs. Their new album Taped Up is out in November and mixes 70s punk with 60s garage and a little bit of rock'n'roll. They're playing an album release show on 12 November at London's Hope and Anchor... hope to see you there!

Here's the video for their last single "It's True". Their next single "I Don't Want It" is out on 1 November.

Vatican Cellars - MP3 from forthcoming debut album

for September you lucky lucky people can download the first single from the VATICAN CELLARS' debut album - BITTER PLANS

www.wiaiwya.com

BITTER PLANS will appeal to fans of TIM HARDIN, the LILAC TIME and NICK DRAKE; a georgeous lament to loss and its accompanying guilt. It's an English gent's soul music, an angry acoustic politely strummed, and a cello part to break you heart... Utterly beautiful...

it's coupled with a cover of VAN HALEN's RUNNIN' WITH THE DEVIL... it's cockrockchamberpop... oh, yes... i said COCKROCKCHAMBERPOP... it's the new thing, and all the kids are doing it...
