All Patreon videos restored!

Hi guys,

I received an email earlier today from Vimeo (remember before Patreon hosted video, you had to use Vimeo?!) telling me that because I'm not paying their hefty price for a tier that allows the amount of storage I was using, they were going to delete all of my videos...

When I went on there to download them before they were gone, I discovered that they'd actually deleted MOST of them a LONG TIME AGO. My apologies for all videos pre-2023ish being unavailable on here for appa...

Livestream 10/11

Hey guys! Hoping to do a livestream next Sunday. I feel so awful for having to postpone again but my throat has completely closed up and my nose is running so much that I don’t think I’d be able to talk or listen without you all being extremely grossed out!

My nan’s funeral is November 8th so hopefully I will be able to stream November 10th. Again I am so so sorry for the postponement.

Love always

Update

Hey all,

Unfortunately there has been a personal medical emergency and I'm once again unable to do a livestream this week - I'm needed at my fiancée's side as he has a torn meniscus. I'm really sorry I've been behind with my livestreams and haven't posted a lot this month - because of this I have paused billing for December 1st so you won't be billed for next month. I feel like this is the right thing to do as I can't keep letting you guys down and let you pay for this...

No livestream this week! Here’s why

Hey guys!

It’s livestream week, but I’ve just got back from a lovely surprise holiday that Davey took me on for my birthday! We went to the Lake District and had such a wonderful time… we even took the little angel delight, and she loved it too. It was our first ever holiday together (and we’ve been together for five years!) and it was wonderful, but I’m pretty exhausted - already napped twice and can’t get my head together! Let’s catch up next week, I can’t wait to tell...

Everybody Lies. The new single, coming July 28th.

Hi guys! By now the chances are (if you've been on any other social media) you've seen the announcement for my new single! Everybody Lies is the first track from my new EP, which is out later this year. It features five completely new songs and will be available in various formats... I'm super excited to share it with you.

Since the announcement I've been keeping a list of usernames/names of people who have shown that they've pre-saved the song to Spotify/Apple Music/etc. Pre-saving ess...

Hi all!

What’s new with you? You good? Great! What’s that? What’s going on with me? Well…

I’m engaged!!! Davey proposed to me just after Valentine’s Day and it was perfect. We haven’t got a date in mind, but we’ve talked about venues for a long time… right now, we’re just riding the wave! I truly have never been happier!

I’ve also been working on new music (still, yes… I know) and wrote/produced an entirely new song from scratch to almost completion i...

Patreon Exclusive Q&A (January 2023)

Hi guys! In the time since I last uploaded a video to Patreon (via Vimeo as that was the only support available at the time...) Patreon has now allowed direct uploads at last! Huzzah!

In a previous post I asked you guys to leave questions, and promised I'd answer each and every one... and so I did! I'd love to do this more often and connect with you all more personally this year (as I am so grateful for your ongoing support each and every month) so please do get involved next time I mak...

Icarus artwork collection (2018)

Hi guys!

So, life update - I’m currently dealing with a gum infection brought on by a wisdom tooth. Yep, I’m still dealing with them at 30 years old. I think I wrote the song ‘Wisdom Teeth’ (from my demo EP released in 2012, available on here - check pinned post!) when I was 19/20 with the lyrics “now my wisdom teeth are through…”

Oh, little did I know that they absolutely were NOT through but that they’d still be causing me grief a decade on…?

Magnetised has been re-pressed on vinyl!

Hi guys! After Magnetised on vinyl sold out many years ago, the prices they fetch on Discogs was ridiculous. I’m strongly against people who try to inflate the price of my music against my wishes, so I had 250 copies re-pressed to ‘repopulate’, as it were. The vinyl has just gone live for pre-order, hopefully expected to arrive in a couple of months!

Punisher by Phoebe Bridgers: Overrated or rightfully celebrated? Album Club #2

Is it a perfect album? No. It is a well-crafted album? Absolutely. Phoebe Bridgers is fearless with her intimate songwriting and story-telling, which shines through in songs such as Garden Song, Punisher and Moon Song - but certain aspects of the album's dynamic journey can pull you out of the moment.

Highlights: Garden Song, Kyoto, Punisher, Moon Song, Graceland Too

Low points: DVD Menu, Halloween, I Know The End

Rating: 8/10

Why 'reputation' is Taylor Swift's WORST album [Early Access]

Hi guys!

Thank you all for supporting me for another month on here! Here is early access to my next YouTube video which should be made public tomorrow evening (so long as the YouTube copyright system plays ball - Vimeo is far more forgiving...)

I hope you all really enjoy this one, this album is an all-time favourite of mine so getting to talk about it was a real joy. I may have to make an actual album review video at some point.

Later this week I'll be making a post on here...

a break, literally

Hello hello! I figured it was time for an update post on what I’ve been up to as of late.

For those of you who aren’t able to join our livestreams, life has been pretty hectic for the last seven weeks - in the early hours of a Saturday in late August, my partner had to climb up the huge conifer tree in our back garden. Somebody (not naming names but it was absolutely our asshole little kitty) climbed up and got themselves stuck - unfortunately, even though Leia got down safely, Dave...

The album is out!!

Hi all!

What a crazy week - it’s absolutely flown by, both personally and professionally. Most importantly, my new album Girl In A Box is out now!! You can stream it, download it or get a physical copy on my store! It even peaked at #7 on the iTunes Alternative Chart - I didn’t make this album to get a chart position, and I didn’t want to do any chart chasing techniques that I see many artists/peers do for more sales… I wanted to write this album to help me overcome some persona...

Hi guys,

The last week of my life has been super hectic - Davey broke his leg trying to get Leia down from our tree in the back garden, so I’m currently spending all of my awake time looking after him, escorting him around the house etc. I’m going to try to keep up my YouTube uploads, but livestreams may be postponed from week to week (but hopefully each week will get easier, so this shouldn’t last long!)

Not all positivity is toxic [RANT] (Early access!)

Hi all,

Happy Bank Holiday Monday! If you're in the US, happy Memorial Day! If you're not from the UK or US, then happy Monday, wherever you may be.

Here is an early access look at tomorrow's YT video - been thinking about the concept of 'toxic positivity' and how it can go too far. It's become natural to look for the negatives in everything now - even when the intention of something can be good. I hope this rant makes sense, I was feeling pretty emboldened when filming on that da...

How can the U.K. do better in the Eurovision Song Contest? [EARLY ACCESS]

Hey guys!

After a bit of a break, I'm back! Filmed three videos today, this was the first. Straight off the back of Eurovision weekend, I've got some opinions on the attitude that our country displays in our songs, performances and attitudes. It's a bit spicy. Hope you enjoy!
