Hello friends!!! We have written an album (yay) but we can’t afford to record it (boo). I set up a gofundme in case anyone wants to donate - we’ll be putting our earnings in there when we can too!!! So so SO much love to everyone 💗🌟 gofundme.com/f/help-bug-tee…

This is definitely the best video I’ve ever released

I dug into the budget sheets to have a look at the realities of modern day touring costs for a bunch of artists. Such is the struggle for many established acts to tour profitably, it’s been declared a cost of touring crisis. theguardian.com/music/2024/apr…

A depressingly real read. We love touring and can’t wait to play shows this summer, but even breaking even from what may look like a decent run of dates is unlikely. Essentially, bands who aren’t already rich are being priced out of this business.

If you’re in Brighton pull up on meeee!

I’m performing at The Alternative Escape alongside Come Play With Me Records finest! It’s free entry, I’ll be performing new music, and the vibes will be 10/10 like always. Sounds crazy right?

The live music industry is both booming and in crisis

And I’m looking for your insights and stories.

I’m working on an essay about about how Taylor Swift can become a billionaire and iconic venues can close in the same week…
