You've heard the music, now buy the albums!
SCANTY WORDS THRIFTY MAN (EP1 in the perks) is a stripped-back project recorded in January 2018, with Johnny Chonk (of the Company) and Lorenzo Edwards-Jones.
JEM KID & COMPANY LIVE (EP2 in the perks) is the eternal record of the songs we arranged this year & played all over Oxford, with Arran Schneebs and Johnny Chonk, featuring Still Pigeon's drummer Will in the studio.
Both recorded, mixed & mastered in Shed Studios by Robin Christensen-Marriott.
It's About Time
I've been performing live for enough years that it's strange to have nothing to show for it. I was terrified of the studio and couldn't get used to the sound of my own voice.
Now it's time to face the music (sorry).
These records are the result of pretty much every hour of spare time I had this year, while I was studying for my final exams. I'm massively proud and quite scared - proud of the records, scared for my final exams.
It's a presale, not a fundraiser
I'm not asking for charity (unless you insist...). If you've heard me live, believe in me and want to hear more, then you'll invest in my music. Like a goat farm or an espresso bar. Sort of.
It's all been recorded: the pre-sale just helps pay off those final bits & pieces like sticker printing and disc reduplication. Lesson: next time, get a f***ing record deal (just kidding, stick it to the man).
The goal is aspirational and arbitrary - I'll take what I get and make the rest up with normal sales like, uhh, every musician ever pre-Internet.
