Half of the 3 Bucket Jones cohort has just released an album on Bandcamp, the place that is great for supporting artists. You can click the link and listen to all the tracks and even buy it for your collection or as a way of supporting an independent artist. The songs are gently beautiful, taking inspiration from nature, stories of life and love . Andy has been compared to Nick Drake and the songs make a good backdrop for art , ironing , photo editing , decorating, knitting or just sitting quietly. Love you to have a listen and let us know how they made you feel.

White Lines
Hallo people. So where have we been? It’s been a songwriting time for us both. Every week Andy and I individually write record and produce a song with the help of a word from https://www.iheartsongwritingclub.com which should be the weekly gym visit of any songwriter wishing to keep their songwriting muscles primed. Gitika is on week 151 and Andy is on week 80 that’s ( quick bit of maths in my head -actually not that quick) 231 songs in the last 3 years ( and that does not count the one we have written together and all the other great music we have been involved in as well )

Also love a bit of ‘reimagining’ and thought I would share this version of ‘White Lines’ by Grandmaster Flash which got some great comments when we shared it on http://syncsummit.com/cafearchives/( will be there soon- first one played when it is posted ) as part of a rap and hip hop cover challenge. Its a very short ( hurrah!) dark brooding ballad. The last album is still on Bandcamp. Now can anyone tell me a really memorable clean joke please?

Catch My Breath -New Album
Stop Press. Our New album CATCH MY BREATH is ready to pre-order & will be released on SWND Records on 11th February – that means you can order the digital and get a track now, or the proper real CD . I am hoping that many people will celebrate with us and support your local musician ( that’s us ) in these crazy times. Pre-ordering really helps us make some impact on release day.

All songs penned and played by Gitika and Andy and produced by Gitika -except one moody Psychedelic Fur’s cover -produced by Matt Glasbey. So much thanks to many people including Katie Tavini -mastering. Lukas Drinkwater – playing and mixing. Matt Glasbey, mixing, and other great mixers including Liam Ross. here is the link. https://swnd1.bandcamp.com/album/catch-my-breath

I’m Not Gonna Rock This Boat
Pretty grim round here due to Gitika losing her mum and we are all very sad. Here is our new video that we did actually finish 2 months ago but been too raw to post. So now it’s posted everywhere in the crazy social media flurry you have to do, so sorry if you have been slightly bombarded. But if you have then THANK YOU for being everywhere – its a good thing and feels lovely from over here.
