This is Rozi - you may already know her and her music. She has been my buddy for years and we sometimes play music together. She has just released her 2nd album J O I N E D   S O M E T I M E S   U N J O I N E D and it is something very special, especially the vinyl edition that I have which I have had on heavy rotation oh yes. Here she is www.roziplain.co.uk
and here is a marvelous new video made by James Haskins of Olo Worm
(note steel pan by Ichi)

This is Andy Skellam aka Spider Belly. Another music buddy of many years. A craftsman of many incredible songs and a procrastinator who sits on them. But I am patiently waiting for his album as I know it will be something very special. He will play at the Grain Barge in Bristol with Woodpecker Wooliams tomorrow - 25th October https://www.facebook.com/events/187900078011789/

This is Gemma Woodpecker aka Woodpecker Wooliams, a musical acquaintance who i`m yet to meet in person but who ICHI has played alongside, and who I know snippets of well from her glitchy new album THE BIRD SCHOOL OF BEING HUMAN. Playing with Spider Belly tomorrow (25th Oct) Grain Barge, Bristol https://www.facebook.com/events/187900078011789/
