well it's the end of summer here in London and it's been an eventful few months..
firstly, my new record Penguins, by
Rabbitsss came out and we've had a great response.. it's an electronic collaboration with NYC artist Jon Cohrs. Great review by
PopMatters here.
Hear the podcast on WNYC New Sounds

And happy to announce the physical CD for Rabbitsss is now for sale on the
Sunwrae website.. as usual, Sunwrae's little helper is ready and waiting to send them out in the post!
Apart from the excitement of the Rabbitsss release, I spent 10 days in Minneapolis recording recently.. 2 albums in 10 days.. sheesh! the pressure was on and overall a very productive time.. here are some pics..
