A whirlwind few months

What a year 2016 has been so far! Since my last post, we moved all of our stuff from our apartment into storage at my in-laws, went travelling for 5 weeks to East and South-East Asia, got the keys to our new apartment and subsequently moved everything in, went on tour in the UK with Salt Of The Sound and now we are in the final renovation stages of our new apartment in Stockholm.

We like to keep ourselves busy – that’s for sure.

Travelling

I had every intention of writing blog posts for each of the 4 countries we visited in Asia, but internet access was limited in some areas, making this a little tricky – but I do still intend to post some short articles on here about those experiences. Here are a few pictures in the meantime…

New Apartment

We’re still in Stockholm – in a slightly bigger place – it means that we have a dedicated studio space so can work more comfortably from home – recording and producing new music. We (well, Ben mostly) even found a way of creating our own, cost-effective and aesthetically-pleasing soundproofing for the home-studio:

I have also been busy re-upholstering our sofa, chairs and dreaming up design ideas for our new home. The renovations have been happening and here are a few of my favourite parts…

Now all that is left to happen is our new kitchen and I am hoping that it will be finished by the end of the week(!).

Salt Of The Sound On Tour

We were contacted last year and asked if we would come over and play for an event in Cambridgeshire at the start of July and so we set about organising our first mini-tour. We played 5 events and were hugely encouraged by the response of people who came out to hear our music. Here is a short video of our week on the road…
