You know that thing when you really love a band and see them many times and once fly half way round the world to watch them play a bar in St Kilda and then 25yrs later they buy your records?well yes exactly that. What a bloody lovely thing x

Uh oh. We’re releasing a shiny pink 7” single from this bunch in a couple of weeks….
April 19, 2025 at 7:07 PM
PING008 is released next month. We always said we’d release a minimum of 9 singles. Why? My grandad wrote an educational book called Nine Modern Poets . It influenced a wide range of people. So 9 records was an attempt to release 9 modern poets for a new generation….

There’s a very healthy set of Popty artists at @focuswales.bsky.social this year with Mowbird, @campfiresocial.bsky.social and @redtelephone.bsky.social all appearing across the weekend xx
