CAZ MECHANIC - THE SECRET LIFE OF THE WIFE OF THE CAPTAIN OF THE SHIP IN A BOTTLE ON THE MANTLE PIECE - CD DD out NOW available from our Shop

"Caz Mechanic proves that she is as blessed with intelligent beauty. Sweet lyrics and nifty asides all indicate a quirky, if not unique, talent." 7/10 Drowned In Sound

"Caz Mechanic has made a confident, uncompromising album on her own terms. An adorable little musical oddity." Clash

HOLTON'S OPULENT OOG - THE PROBLEM OF KNOWLEDGE - Ltd LP (300), CD, DD out NOW!! You can buy it from our Shop

"A pretty, intimate gem." Plan B

"Holton’s Opulent Oog’s sound is all wistful sighs, whisky slugs and alt.country brilliance." BN 9/10 NME

"Perfect listening through its sheer tenderness & sincerity. Guitar picking loveliness. A work of love, unique." Notion

"The Problem of Knowledge is a subtle, but very alluring record. The core of its sound is dreamy alt-country, mainly based around the dusty, Dylan-like vocals, Spanish guitar and harmonica of the eponymous Holton. But more fundamentally, this is an album that contains classic songwriting pushed many ways" 7/10 Drowned In Sound
