Next month I will be 22. I think in many ways I am exactly the same as when I was 18, and in a few ways I am different. It’s nice to be a part of a small label as great as Bella Union, and to k...

I got to see my friend Sharon play Rough Trade tonight, it felt so good. The place was very busy, and the set was gorgeous. The new LP is wonderful, and will probably be one of the small handful of v...

I’ve only listened to the new Islands record a couple of times, but I’m very much enjoying. Written post-breakup, the album finds Thorburn at his most sincere. It’s a slick pop albu...

I shot Slow Club for NME the other day; I have not seen them play for yonks. I forgot that they’re a really solid live band. Good fun! The lighting conditions kinda sucked. I wish I had the 70-...
Here are a coupla snaps I took of Grimes the other day. I miss taking pictures at shows. Riding everywhere on my bike makes it quite a hassle to carry heavy gear around if the ride is more than a few...
My friend Rupert runs a lovely record shop called Drift; it is in Devon. He is making a paper about record stores and asked if I’d draw the center fold, a map of record stores. It’s A2 si...
