Probably should have used this for #TicketStubWed as it's one of those #OnThisDay type things. Post-Fish Marillion with Little Angels as support!

#TicketStubWed Tori Amos for £7? Yes please! Amazing she was at such a small venue too!

For anyone wishing to catch up with last nights Stranger radio show The Cutting Edge, 90 mins of new music from around the world, it's now available to listen to anytime. Link below strangerradio.mixlr.com/recordings/2...

#TicketStubWed Paramore, 2010 Missed a couple of weeks but here's a good one. Paramore certainly an influence on our sound.

Releasing a new single and then not posting or saying anything about it for nearly 2 weeks afterwards apparently isn't the best music strategy! #musicmarketing #newmusic

📣NEW SINGLE! We love symmetry so here's a second single to make things look nicer on our streaming platforms. #newmusicfriday #indiepop

Don't forget that our second single, 'Kawaii Karen' will be available to stream or buy from Friday! (Video already on YouTube) #newmusic #altpop #indie linktr.ee/blackdiamondduchess

#TicketStubWed Cocteau Twins, 1990 Another credible pick from Dad's collection. The Hummingbird sounded a great venue. It became the Academy and now it's the Forum.

No, YouTube! The lyric should be 'in DEMAND'! 😳 Looks like we need to edit the captions.... #misheardlyrics #musicvideo

#TicketStubWed Talk Talk - Birmingham Odeon, 1986 Actually jealous of one of my Dad's gig tickets here. Row A for Talk Talk!

ICYMI - Our debut release 'All the Young Hipsters ' has reached....100 plays on YouTube! 😶 And not all of them were Luke's mom! Ironic in that the song is about how easy it is to exist online but feel invisible in real life. We’re all connected, but no one’s really listening! But you are....

The latest episode of 'Anything Anything Posi' with Brian B has been posted. For fans of Apryl Knight, Kendra Morris, Allen Thomas, Needy Pet, JVK, Primitive Heads, Breon S.Y.N.D.E.L, Amity, Dion, Julian Lennon, Black Diamond Duchess, Young Weather, Jillian Matundan archive.org/details/oct-...

Remember when #newmusic used to come out on Mondays instead of Fridays? We vaguely do so we'll use today as a plug for our first single (out on Friday) about being surrounded by people but still feeling on the outside “I got the clothes but I just don’t fit in your scene.” youtu.be/9U42JzGjoWQ?...

Hey there Bluesky. We are Black Diamond Duchess, an alt-pop trio with a taste of those 90s acts we were too young to appreciate at the time! We're new to social media but have been working on songs in the background which we'll share soon. Hope you can join us on our journey! Alex, Kris & Luke
