Watch Thieves - Holy Medal
Yesterday we got a letter in the mail. Scotland! Unwrap it, quickly: a letter, a drawing, a cd… our friends are spread far and wide, and they send us pieces of their lives. I wanted to upload the whole cd because it’s so beautiful. Compelling, impulsive listening. But I’m settling for one of the new songs, “Holy Medal”.
What I don’t know is: are they cunning sneaky takers of timepieces, or addicted to CCTV?
Last I knew, Watch Thieves is comprised of the incredible incomparable Sharon, Michael and Lucy. Tornstrings has played many a show with Watch Thieves, who used to be known as “Insecurity Front” and are playing around Edinburgh. We love you, Watch Thieves.
Ordinary secrets are the ephemeral magics we stumble across in our everyday wanderings...
This blog is an attempt to capture some of our adventures and dreams. It will hopefully grow to contain sound files recorded en route from scotland to australia in 2011, along with a story here and there. When we get to australia we are aiming to turn this stuff into a zine & accompanying cassette/cd.
So far we think we will be travelling with a concertina, a silver flute, a ukulele, and some penny whistles, maybe a harmonica.
I record things with a Zoom H2. It's easy.
