Screw you nepotism

Sometimes it is nice waking up and realising that I have actively chosen or not chosen to be exactly where I am in my life. All my successes and failures have been by my own hand and not because of my father, mother, sister or brother or even worse, because of strategic shags.

Screw all those who rely on nepotism to succeed. What an awful thing to be living such a sham life and 90% of people in this industry have come about in this blood is thicker than talent way....

Back to School

Tomorrow I go back to school for the first time in almost 5 years.

I hate being the new girl...

Turning of the Decade

Time misplaces you more than any lover, brother or small print book,
Turning of age or landmark or both cuts deep.
I am not the person everyone predicted I was destined to be.
I am the person I thought I would never be.
Yet, I am secretly gushing over my new found path
Treacherous, painful and lacking in any tangible measure,
My lifelong dreams plague me with glittering nightmares,
Shiny nightmares of my inhibited feet,
Ashamed and unworthy awkwardly sits amongst my peers.
My success is only written on paper and all my failures transcribed on every bill.
I am terrified of the new dawn.

Blue On You

I will be recording some tracks very soon for the first Blue On Blue 4 song EP which will be released early next year! It will be released on an amazing label which I will give details on in the upcoming weeks.

Exciting times!

Oral Monologue

I absolutely loves Ira's footage of our last London show. I particularly like us all smiling at each other at the very start. It makes me feel very happy when I watch this. I really love and enjoy what we're doing. We've never rehearsed and our 5 song set has come about from the jams we have at gigs, each time with a guest member and this time we had the amazing Joel from Battant on bass. More than anything, I'm in a band with such wonderful friends and that means a lot.

Our next public outing is next Tues Nov 17th as we play White Heat for
R O M A N C E's single launch. I'm expecting outfit changes and explosions.

See you there
