"Yzz" EP

Click the picture to download a new 8-track EP what I done for the price of your choice or for nothing if you want. It's a pretty minimal guitar yoke and there's some extra artwork stuff in it too made up of some close-up and far-away instant photographs, some of which are located directly beneath this sentence in your Internet browser/jalopy.

Berries, ant carrying ant, fly, ant on a finger

Emily Aoibheann

Emily's done practically everything. Musician, writer, artist, performer, aerialist (!), actress, model... I met her through her Cixous Ghost incarnation on Myspace a while back. I got in touch when I saw that she was releasing a cassette of recordings -  Pestersome Nichts - made with a previous band named Holy Ghost Toast, a cassette that, along with a Rural Savage CD-R from the first Bethlemayhem, soundtracked many a happy breakfast-time while I was studying in Dublin. Geek Love is my favourite track from that tape; it's a floating wonderworld of a song, the non-percussion bit towards the end is just gorgeous. Thus began my down-the-rabbit-hole discovery of Emily's long list of creations and guises. A few weeks back she wanted a break from work in the large smoke so came down to visit for the weekend, which we filled with a little bit of wandering, raspberry sushi, photographs, face-smushing scanning, Father Ted and facepaint, barefoot snow frolics and chats and chats.

Up Close and Instantaneous

 

A long day off. My eyes seem to always be half-closed; dozy and slow.

Old, for Instants

 I took these Instax photos on the 26th September 2009 at my first ever gig, in a shed behind number 236 South Circular Road, Dublin - aka The Box Social.
