I'm Still Afraid To Paint

Today i\ve been experimenting with painting and painting surfaces. I keep meaning to get into painting but never have the balls to go the whole way. These are tentative steps into it. I don't consider them to be very good, but there is enough in them and in the process to keep on with it and to develop things further. I'm trying to create abstract works on lo-fi surfaces to relieve the pressure of making a 'piece of work' and to just try to enjoy the making process, see what comes of it...

 

 

 

Sketch For Something...

A couple of bits

A poem

Michael Winner
Stole my dinner.
He said he would rate it,
But instead he just ate it.

A story made from words played in a scrabble game #2

The FLAME RACED up the VINE in the VILE ZOO, burning the ARKS in the LION-pen and spreading like some MEGA-TOXIN across the DUNES. I was WEDGED in a SMELLY CRYPT with a bottle of RYE. My JAW felt QUEER and it was making me GURN. I'd gone for a SWAB earlier but they'd just put a BIB on me and RUBBED me with SOAP. I stared at the GROUT in the wall and SLOWLY lost the will to LIVE.

GLACIERS SINGS!

Some live videos from my trip to Sicily with Hugh Frost from Landfill. Lots of fun! 

I'm pleased with these, it's the first time i've really been filmed playing music, so was a bit weird at first but the locations were pretty special. 

I hope you like them too...

New Mythologies Video!

Last night was the launch for the new Glaciers album 'New Mythologies'.

Thanks to everyone who came down, we had a really good evening, the venue was pretty good too (The Others). Tom Fun and Tocantins Back-to-back DJing was also really fun, thanks boys!

Hugh has finished an edit of the video we made in Sicily. https://vimeo.com/43033975

NEW GLACIERS ALBUM, LAUNCH & VIDEOS!

Some of you may know that i've been playing music under the name 'Glaciers' for the past 5 years or so. 

I'm releasing a second Glaciers album through Landfill Editions called 'New Mythologies', which will be available to buy from Tuesday 29th May, when we're also having a launch night in Stoke Newington at The Others (above the snooker hall on Manor Road).

Hugh at Landfill and I went to Sicily for 4 days to make a film of live performances and a video for the song 'New Mythologies' form the album. This will hopefully be available to watch online at the beginning of next week or earlier. 

The show is the first time Glaciers has appeared as a band for a while. I'd love it if you could come down for the launch, and if you could forward this email to anyone else you think might want to join us. There'll be things to buy and beer to drink and some wonderful DJing by Tocantins and Tom Fun. 

Oh and it's FREE!
