SWEETS!

i found this photo of one of the idents for MTV's International rebrand in collaboration with UK studio Universal Everything...it's basically a shit load of sweets all piled up together and then they crash forward and spill everywhere...click here to watch the whole video..it's called International Sweethearts....it reminds me of charlie and the chocolate factory and the child catcher from Chitty chitty bang bang!

we made a music video

We absolutely worked our arses off at the weekend filming non stop for our new music video for next single Under the Bed!
Original concept is by the brilliant Rob Heard, who was also directing and he totally brought out the best in us…it was a very intense shoot!
here are a few photos from the weekend so you get an idea of our costumes; we made them all by ourselves and it was amazing how much effort everyone made
with only a week to prepare!

Here’s a photo of the lovely nice and shiny floor and drumkit!!
Expect more photos next week of us dancing around and getting down to business xxx

new songs and garlic

i had one of those weekends where it just seems to go on forever so when it's time to go back to work on monday i've almost forgotten i've got a job and it's a real shock to the system!
anyway it's mid morning now so i'm almost used to it again...don't really mind my job actually..i'm just knackered!!
went out in oxford on saturday night...actually the first time ive ever been there..very picturesque and lots of boys walking around in blazers and ties bless em!
but ayway on sunday i went to leigh's flat in wembley and we cracked out not 1 but 2 brand new acoustic songs! working titles are 'Learning to Smile' and 'Not our night'

it'll probably end up with one being the 2nd b side to our upcoming single and
then the other being released as a free download over the summer...
felt like we had a really productive day though...leigh even taught me how to make indian flat bread...it's just so quick and easy although mine was a bit tasteless so i threw loads of garlic on it and now my hands still stink!

New acoustic song Perfection

I’ve just uploaded the acoustic version of Perfection to our myspace page
It was actually the 2nd B side on our debut 7” Count in My Head
but just thought I’d upload it to the myspace so you can have a listen!
We’re currently writing and recording some more acoustic tracks which we’ll be releasing via FREE download this summer, in the build up to our next 7” release..
Woohoo we love a freebie xxxx
