Falling Mirror Reconciliation Day concert at the Baxter

Monday 16 December 2013

On heritage day, September 24th, Allan Faull passed away while in studio with Falling Mirror. Devastating and tragic for so many reasons, the timing of his sudden passing seems particularly cruel as the last year has seen the band working hard on a comeback and recording an album of new material.

Events of less significance have led to the dissolution of bands, but Falling Mirror have decided to expand and stay together; on Reconciliation Day, with the support of The Black Bear Band, the Mirror performed a one-night-only show at the Baxter Theatre and received two standing ovations, confirming that their decision to carry on was the right one.

Baby cyclamens

October 2012 –  2013

My friends know I’m a crazy old cat lady in the making but I’m also one of those people who fret over who’ll water their plants when they’re away from home for extended periods…

Cyclamens are one of my favourite flowers, I fell in love with them at first sight in 2005 and have had several of the beautiful pot plants since then. Currently I have 3 adult plants and, for the first time ever, my plants bore seeds at the end of 2012. With the help of the internet I managed to grow them into baby cyclamens.

Red Huxley ‘Nothing More’ album launch with the Dollfins and Goodnight Wembley at the Assembly

Friday 15 November 2013

A few months ago, I joined over 100 others in backing Red Huxley on Kickstarter to help them record their debut album with Dave Catching of Eagles of Death Metal in the USA. Their crowdfunding effort proved successful and the band headed off for the states in July. Fast forward to November and they’re back with their completed album, Nothing More, which they launched last Friday at the Assembly supported by the Dollfins and Goodnight Wembley.
