Great show and crowd. We then got to enjoy the weekend, and watch acts such as The Charlatans, Dutch Uncles, David McAlmont, and Badly Drawn Boy.
Think I had my phone charger and hair straighteners plugged in on stage, as there was no electricity at the campsite!

Beauty is the Enemy
Photographer and writer @nunoazelpdsalmeida mixes his own photography and stories he has written, along with "music by artists that inspire me to create. The idea is to make and share an experience joining all the elements."
The track 'Splendour' was included in the creation of Beauty is the Enemy - and is available to view, read, and listen (via a podcast playlist) at the PROJECTO CELLOPHANE blogspot site.
Obrigado, Nuno.

Also some pics of the amazing @psyklones_@emilymercermusic and EASTER @crumpsallpipedreams who each played fantastic sets.

2018 vs 2026
We played at Manchester Peer Hat to launch our 2018 album Tales of Coincidence. And again this week for our Control Zed record.
Here are some photos, and setlists, from each performance.
The more things change, the more they stay the same...
What a fantastic crowd to perform for last night at the @the_peer_hat . Thankyou to all who came along, listened, cheered, ordered the vinyl, drank, bought a tshirt, had fun, and added to the event. We owe you all.
And of course to @psyklones_@emilymercermusic and EASTER @crumpsallpipedreams for being ace.
It was so much fun to play things off our new album 'Control Zed' (and all the time signatures that come with it!) - including some for the first time. The album is out now in usual places, or download / order the 12" vinyl at carousel clouds dot com. Vinyl is pressed and ready to ship next week.
This adventure doesn't end here....
