UNTHANKS A LOT

Having recently met the organisers of End of the Road (the guys who do the festival and release records and put on shows and all that jazz), Simon gave me the task of creating a poster for an Unthanks gig with David Thomas Broughton at Union Chapel. It has now also appeared in Word magazine and Uncut. If you fancy going to the event, check out the information on the poster.

I've recently helped Joseph Brett and the guys at End of the Road in the making of this awesome video for Efterklang's new single 'I Was Playing Drums'. I helped out with some of the creative process and even helped Joseph with a bit of editing. I love the finished product and am very proud of Joe for getting his little baby conceived, filmed and out in the world within such a short space of time. Enjoy!
