2025 was the year we said goodbye to the best fella I’ve ever known. Tonight I’ll be raising a glass and celebrating his life. 🍾🍺🥂x

There’s only four words on my C.V… The Moon Birds- I am the Breeze. open.spotify.com/track/5Z9ifO...

Oh, our shining stars and body. We released our second album this year, and things like this make it all seem worthwhile. In the latest Violette Newsletter, Jasmine Nahal picks a song of ours as the best thing she's discovered this year - in stunning, beautiful fashion. Thank you.

Bob, Peter & Bunny is the coolest shit ever. m.youtube.com/watch?v=5R94...

All the very best, you lot. Be merry. Be peaceful. Be happy. Eat too much cheese. Fall asleep on the couch. Pop some rennies. Listen to This Blue Earth. Listen to Big Unit Agricultural Regime. Free Palestine. Tell bad jokes. Kiss & hug your loved ones and tell them you love them.

Across the land, over Christmas dinners, families are debating the only pressing issue of the day - the best track on THIS BLUE EARTH. What says us, gang?!

All three episodes of Shipwrecked Christmas Specials are here now - two and a half hours of Christmas tinged reggae, soul, jazz, post-punk and further oddities.. All the best, you lot X www.mixcloud.com/ClubShipwrec...

Silk Road @theshipbuilders.bsky.social headlining a great bill of music and spoken word @futureyard.org last night.

I've been playing for 20 yrs and Saturday was probably our best gig ever. There's been times over the last few months where I'd considered making it our last hurrah, but seeing what we've built up and the community around Shipwrecked.. well, we're already planning for 2026.. Diddley-aye-ey, gang ⚓

love this! Sounds like Joe Meek producing the official song of the 1972 USSR Olympic curling team. youtu.be/zBeUVFD7Og8?...

Some are saying 'This Blue Earth' is the greatest album of 2025. We agree. Largely because that's us saying it. But either way, amidst the flurry of End of Year album lists we're not yet making, we'd wholeheartedly recommend you get to know it Spotify: open.spotify.com/album/3lQCzz...
