The Importance of Sharp Footwear in Wonderland

Long term Speed Of Sound artistic collaborator Natalie Paddick has a new website which has a feature on the work we've done together over the years & yes; the stunning T-shirt is back in stock on our 'shop' page and via Bandcamp again. 

I'm quite sure there are many lasting relationships that begin with footwear and fortunately all is explained within, but suffice to say shoes are essential. 

The Wonderland Clockwork Orange crossover images worked superbly in the Checkered Land video:

and the building 'renovation' scenes fitted Shut All The Clubs equally, gig posters and assorted website elements followed. Enter sinister Bunny stage left.

You can find the piece here and we're happy to say despite viral interventions there is more mixed media collaboration on the way... 

Cut off their tails with a carving knife... (or some sharp scissors) ...Snip snip snip...

Wearable Art

The T-Shirt has landed:
Get yours here via bandcamp

205gsm unigender T-shirt with centre chest print of the Natalie Paddick  'Bunny' design. We've worked with Natalie before on video production using her stills in the video for Shut All The Clubs and also Checkered Land, her images compliment The Speed Of Sound's music and her 'Alice Through The Clockwork Orange' series of photographs are simply inspired, a perfect match.

The vibrant pink and yellow in this design creates a shockingly bright and eye-catching motif, while the vapour trails in the band logo to either side twist and perform aerobatic turns when worn with a loose fitting size. A design reminiscent of (but more brutal than) Andy Warhol's screen prints. Natalie has prints of her other work on sale via Lenswall and also at SaatchiArt online. Find her here http://www.npme.co.uk
Much more than a band t-shirt, this is wearable art.

It's a heavy weight t-shirt which makes it more durable and hard wearing than the standard lighter weight garments. Other features include a taped neck and twin needle stitching for neatness and strength.

image preview

We've been quietly working on a t-shirt with photographer Natalie Paddick, we previously collaborated with her on the videos for Shut All The Clubs and Checkered Land, and have also used some of here pictures on our gig posters.

A selection of her 'boxer 'photographs are exhibiting at Saatchi gallery online, just
find their website and tap her name into 'search'.

It's a great pleasure to work with her again and they are very striking bold graphics, exactly what a band t-shirt should be like.

We'll have some modelled shots of the prototype in  a week or so, in the meantime here 's a preview:

An electric easter

A busy easter weekend coming up; playing an acoustic radio session on Friday, gigging in Surrey on Saturday, Staffordshire on Sunday and a photo shoot for the Electric50 gig on Monday.

And, ...we're Basildon Radio's most played independent for the third successive week. Nice.

A first glimpse of the new video

Editing is very advanced with the new video, we're delighted to again have some stills provided by Natalie Paddick of NPME Style, there is some dark stuff happening in there. Its for the new 45rpm single and its coming soon.
