We’ve got a blog.
John: I’ve been blogging on and off for a couple of months, about works-in-progress (you can hear them), general thoughts, books et al. Have a read at http://thehoneyants.co.uk/blog. Unless you’re here already. Confused? The ‘news’ category appears on the website too. Bit chicken and egg isn’t it.

We’ve got a music video.
A couple of weeks ago a few of us descended on Clerkenwell’s nicest coffee shop and spent about seven hours making a video for I Can’t Escape. All shot with a Canon 7D. Check the new videos section.

Website facelift
Well, the old one was getting a bit rusty. Truth is, it wasn’t really rusty enough, all a bit glossy and what-not. This one’s based on a lovely old “Folkscene” poster I found from the 60s that was advertising Paul Simon and Earl Scruggs.
