Very happy to announce @e.r.thorpe as support for Torn Sail at Nottingham’s @squirepac on the 26th March.
Emma has played several shows with us over the years, and appeared on our albums too. She’s brilliant and will be playing songs from her album - Human Love - out on @theviciouscharm 27th March.

Three years have passed since the First Happening.
We’ve released three beautiful records, and the fourth is at the pressing plant.
We’ve curated six further Happenings and a choice selection of Delia Presents shows.
Your enthusiastic Happening attendances, eager record purchases and big-hearted crowdfunder donations helped us get here.
So, what’s next?
We’re launching liarecordings.com today.

Here I am doggedly continuing the series of ‘What’s That Song About?” Though yet again I forgot to actually talk about the subject matter, instead reading out the extensive press coverage of this, my best work.
There are actually more sold than left. It’s a beauty and respect to @deliarecordings for investing in such a fine production. Delia maybe a small label…a micro label but nothing is done by half.
Link in the bio for that perfect Christmas gig.
@torn_sail played a three song acoustic set for @deliarecordings Sixth Happening at St. John’s, Carrington, Nottingham.
This is ‘Consider Your Position’.
Huw Costin - vocals and acoustic guitar.
Henry Claude - harmony vocals and electric guitar.
John Thompson - bass.
Filmed by Andre Bonsor.
Live sound by Jonni Scott.
Audio mixed by Matt Horobin.
Commissioned by Delia Recordings.
‘Consider Your Position’ is taken from the album called ‘Steady Weather’. Available at liarecordings.com / via the bio.
