Lyndon describes
‘Pilgrim Hill’
as: ‘a
list of things I like - dusk, snow, glam-rock, NME
in its 70s heyday, pigeons, second-hand bookshops,
‘Like A Rolling Stone’. It's a sad song
because that's how I felt when I wrote it (sometimes
it makes me happy to walk the city streets feeling
sad) but all those things I like are in there to offset
all the sad stuff like the dead foxes and so on. It's
Happy and Sad facing up to each other, slugging it
out one snowy day.’

In case you haven't heard, we
launched our guerrilla
book club in March, at the Roundhouse Studio
show, where we gave away numerous copies of our favourite
books -- we're also leaving them in public places all
over London (and beyond, when we get a chance!). Each
book has a personal recommendation from us written inside
and a message for the finder to take the book, read
it, keep it or pass it onto their friends! Look out
for copies of Kerouac, Kafka, James Joyce, D.H. Lawrence
and others on a tube train near you…and if you
find one, let us know. We've set up a forum
for that very purpose, so come on, let's get a dialogue
going!
We've just confirmed a new festival
date and our first ever Irish gig! We're playing Dublin's
Analog Festival 18th - 20th July. Will let
you know the full details when we have them...
If you're having any
trouble finding the album in the shops it's also available
to buy online at these sites: Amazon
and One
Little Indian and downloadable at iTunes,
eMusic
and TuneTribe
