Gentle
portraits of the everyday, playful melodies, clattering instrumentation and a
little charm, this is the sound of Stickboy, and it seems to be stuck in our
heads.
Since
releasing his first album earlier this year, Manchester’s Stickboy, aka Craig,
has had a track featured in Gossip Girl and picked up some Lamacq love and
looks destined for a little extra appreciation as the summer rolls on.
We
caught up with him down an ethernet cable near you to talk about bands, writing
songs and fluffy bunnies…
Hi,
how are you?
I’m very well thank you, busy busy, writing, recording and sorting out artwork
etc for a 7" vinyl release that will be coming out very soon.
In honour of the upcoming Yazoo tour (which I've got tickets to, woohoo!), here's a cracker I stumbled upon the other day, made perfect by the marvelous Cheggers!
Two things strike me;
1. Has anyone ever been in a room with Martin Gore and Vince Clark at the same time??
2. Is Alison Moyet dancing to a different record?
Anyway, time to slow down the mood a little bit, time for us all to relax to a smashing number...
