about

This live album is culled from soundboard recordings of our two sets at the Sonic Rock Solstice Festival (in Bromsgrove UK) on 6/16/22 & 6/19/22. Since the audio is from the soundboard, the only crowd noises you'll hear are what the mics picked up. We did repeat a few songs across the sets. Rather than include multiple recordings
of the same songs, we chose to use only the best ones. We also edited out some pauses, blabbing, and so forth and our crash and burn encore (hey kids,
don't try and do an unrehearsed song that you've forgotten how to play!). While some mixing trickery
was done to give it more depth, there are no overdubs. Mostly, we tried to make it sound like a single set so that it would be a better listening
experience.
 
 
There are so many people to thank. Sorry, I know we will miss thanking a lot of you by name, but here goes… Martyn Hasbeen & Sharon Needham for
making such an amazing festival & for loaning us such a great guitar and the emergency drive back to the hotel and for just being wonderful people,
Berto & Roo for being so nice and generous, Garry Lee for being as great in person as he is online, Yann our new friend from France,
Primrose Davis & Pippa Melling for the ride and chat, Pauline Collins Alderdice for the alien & sharing her husband John's lovely blog with us
John your words about us were so kind, Steve Pond for the great stories, Kelly Pond for letting Steve talk, John Graves for being fun to play with & for the great lighting & Jen for the dancing cows
along with the other trippy visuals, Harry Collison & Pete Stanley for the incredible photos, Jim Beerman for the fun booming introductions, Pete Wibrew for
the recordings and sound, all the people who were there, all the crew, venue staff, and bands. Also thanks Zen Jen lighting, Amadeus PA crew, And Howlingmad video productions.
Every single person we interacted with was truly groovy. Thank you all.
