✨ GET LOST turns 5 today!
Released on my album WEIRDO, this maximalist synth pop anthem still bangs.

New music from my 5th solo album is coming soon — let’s get lost all over again 💿💥

TONIGHT! I'm opening for Frances McKee at The Hug and Pint GLASGOW - see you there 🔮❤️⭐🎸

I've got a mixed 5th ALBUM as a solo artist. ❤️😀 Feeling pretty good. And I'm really not one to pat my own back.

Sending a private link to some pals to help with track running order and Soundcloud seems to think it's a change in direction of sound judging by the auto-generated hashtags.

Happiness is a recording studio :)

Got more mixes of new album from Howard Bilerman today.

I'm just going to say it.
My best album yet.
January 29, 2025 at 6:21 PM
Starting to get album mixes in from Howard❤️ FOX YOU (cowritten with @darrenhayman.bsky.social) is pure indie pop with more than a dash of Tracey Ullman and a sprinking of Rachel Sweet 😋 And now I can't wait for the rest of the tracks to arrive 😀💕🌟🎸

Messed about today trying to do an Ivor Cutler song. I'm not usually one for covers, but I really love his song Worn My Elbows Down To The Bone.
January 26, 2025 at 5:01 PM
Song from new album supported by Creative Scotland and my Kickstarter community ❤️ co-written with Poster Paints pal Simon Liddel.

There's 3 songs we've written together for this album. This one is called 'Never Really Wanted'.

Album being mixed by Howard Bilerman next week ✨️

Yes, I loved this too, was just talking to my wife about it last night... well done to @carlajeaston.bsky.social (and the others) for making it happen & that inspirational voiceover 👍
I’m sure all my Scottish sistren & bredren have already watched this at the cinema, but this great slice of rousing cinema about women and music - GIRL BANDs!! - is now on iPlayer and I loved it. You’re welcome.

Wholesome content.
Giving one of my nieces her first ever record player.

Gave her her first vinyl too.
I am pleased to report it's already been used well and given prime place in her bedroom.

I really loved being able to include my niece Rosie in the making of Since Yesterday.

I wanted to make sure she understood what we were doing, so when I asked her, "do you know what this film is about?" she said "Yes - it's about how girls can do anything" ❤️✊

I am so proud of her!

Excited to be opening the Edinburgh Hogmanay Concert In The Gardens this year ❤️🎉

I'll be doing a short set before Callum Beattie, and Texas take to the stage.

That's a sentence I never envisioned typing.

Just caught up with this on iPlayer.
Brilliantly put together and a necessary story. Lots of bands I need to hear more of.

Just watched this and it’s great. Some names I knew and some I didn’t. A real celebration but one that doesn’t flinch from inconvenient truths.
