New video! “Pirates And Diamonds” live at Accidental Powercut for Bowers and Wilkins
Just before I zoomed off to do Big Chill Festival in August, I played solo at the gorgeous St Barnabas Chapel in Soho for a night called “Accidental Powercut”.
It was completely acoustic and was part of a short series of gigs being recorded binaurally for Bowers and Wilkins and the British Library, featuring Talvin Singh, Polarbear and Tinashe among others.
Here is a video of my song “Pirates And Diamonds” from the night, produced by squareimedia. The black device in front of me is a dummy human head, with microphones inside its very realistically shaped ears. So if you watch the film with headphones on, your ears will hear what the dummy head heard as a binaural recording, and you’ll feel as if you were actually there.

Sound Of Rum and Ghostpoet also played, making it a seriously brilliant event with lashings of atmosphere.
