My latest album is here: noncanon.bandcamp.com along with 2 others, some t-shirts, and a collab EP notebook I made with @suzannahevans.bsky.social. Sad/slightly odd indiefolk with expansive instrumentation. I also have loud stuff with big riffs and yelling at oxygenthief.bandcamp.com

Featuring: @suzannahevans.bsky.social, @srdfrench.bsky.social, @verbivorial.bsky.social, @maetang.myatproto.social, Emma J. Lannie, Sophie Parkes, Sophie Reck Pointon and Ella Sprakarn!

This album has songs that: Paraphrase Salt-N-Pepa Are from the POV of Wally from off of Where’s Wally, inspired by a tweet by @mooseallain.bsky.social Adapt a @suzannahevans.bsky.social poem about climate anxiety dystopia Are reverse engineered from some @petefrasermusic.bsky.social sax solos…

A song partly about fireworks, and the contradiction between how much I love them while feeling bad that they cause Fear in others, from the 2023 tour EP made with @suzannahevans.bsky.social : noncanon.bandcamp.com/track/light-...

This list keeps getting longer eh?

How is the solution to ‘an island of strangers’ to introduce a rhetoric that estranges us further from each other? How is it not an investment in community and a reinstatement of resources lost under austerity?

Cambridge launch of 'Ten Poets Travel to the Dark Side of the Moon': tomorrow, 6pm, Waterstones. Here I am discussing it and other space poetry books, inc. 'Space Baby' by @suzannahevans.bsky.social and 'Watcher of the Skies' by @theemmapress.bsky.social. shotscarecrow.substack.com/p/low-gravit...

I was looking for something else and then I found this poem and had to stop for a bit (Jen Hadfield, from The Stone Age)

Happy ALCS day to all who celebrate. Nearly covered the cost of my new glasses this time 🤓

Hello! I’m happy to have some Bluesky followers at last! I’m Suzannah, I live in Sheffield and I write things (poems for a while now, presently fiction). I’m more into doing than being, but that’s because I’m lucky enough to be so. I like birds & dogs. Also I’ve got a gig on Sunday, pls come

This is coming up, Bristol friends, and it would be awesome to see you!

Bristol! This lovely paywhatyouwant afternoon gig is one week today; @suzannahevans.bsky.social, me, and Tom Sastry celebrate the release of Suzannah’s latest book. Tix from www.headfirstbristol.co.uk/whats-on/sid... Shares appreciated, thanks! #poetry #livemusic #acoustic #Bristol
