Big hello to the Bluesky underground indie community 🤍 Celebrating joining @subvert.fm with an exclusive single which you can stream/download here: www.subvert.fm/fran-carlyon...

The music of Arthur Russell remains a constant source of hope and inspiration. My recently completed cover of You Can Make Me Feel Bad is up at YouTube now: youtu.be/qj2yFMWelfQ?...

Throughout June, my wife Julia will be completing Refuge's 100 Miles in June challenge - walking 100 miles across the month to help raise awareness and vital funds for survivors of abuse. Any support would be greatly appreciated: www.justgiving.com/fundraising/...

Totally in awe of the new Carla Dal Forno LP Confession. Evocative, intimate diy pop that channels the fearless spirit of post-punk through its shimmering dreampop haze. Absolutely essential listening from one of the very best out there doing it.

Hi all, I hope you’re well. I have a new, digital only single out today, featuring a remaster of Sometimes (they just fall out of the sky) and brand new song Nowhere: francarlyon.bandcamp.com/album/someti... If streaming is your jam: open.spotify.com/album/4VrZHY... Much love x

Out this Friday: A remastered Sometimes (they just fall out of the sky) b/w brand new song Nowhere. This release marks my final transmission before I retreat into summer to continue work on the follow up to Home Truths. Much love 🩵

Alongside Cindy’s stunning new album Another Country comes this mixtape which includes my non-album track Sometimes (they just fall out of the sky). To see my recording nestled alongside some of my very favourite lofi artists of the moment is truly the stuff of dreams. Out now.

Because sometimes the only answer is to spend a long weekend dossing about in Bristol ❤️

A huge hello to the Bluesky indie community, hope you’re holding up 🤍 I’ve been recharging in beautiful Folkestone, there’s no place quite like it. New music soon.

Hi all, jumping on to shout out this glorious new tape from lofi acid folk duo Menow, out via Galaxy Train. Aiha Higurashi’s stunning artwork makes a physical acquisition absolutely essential: galaxytrain.bandcamp.com/album/flannel

If you see this, post a concert photo you took. Cindy Chats Palace, London 13/02/26

Hi all 🤍 A live version of Running On Emptiness from my recent set for Tea and Oranges at The Fickle Pickle is now available to watch here: youtu.be/NQmSFJTHAaA?... 📷: @aleatorus.bsky.social

I know I’m a little late to the party on this one, but I’m delighted to be in possession of this @shopfiresmusic.bsky.social gem, out now via @subjangle.bsky.social: shopfires.bandcamp.com/album/we-are...

I don’t consider myself a natural live performer, and the nerves were almost unbearable this time out, but it’s always massively rewarding and I’ve been on a post-gig high ever since. Photo by William Chouffot at The Fickle Pickle, 21/03/26. Home Truths is out now: open.spotify.com/album/4J7gIo...

Last night I had the absolute pleasure of sharing the stage with my daughter Freya to finish my set for Tea and Oranges at The Fickle Pickle, Westcliff-On-Sea. I’m totally biased of course, but she completely stole the show ❤️ 📷: William Chouffot

This Saturday 21st March I’ll be celebrating the release of Home Truths with an acoustic set opening the first Tea and Oranges of the year at The Fickle Pickle, Westcliff-on-Sea. More info here: musiconmydoorstep.co.uk/gigs/9768/te...

Hi all 🤍 My non-album cut Sometimes (they just fall out of the sky) is included on the mixtape that accompanies Cindy’s forthcoming album Another Country (@toughloverecords.bsky.social). I am forever grateful to Karina Gill for thinking of me: cindytheband.bandcamp.com/album/anothe...

Hi all 🤍 Home Truths and stand alone single Living Your Last Chance are now available across streaming services, if that’s your jam: open.spotify.com/album/4J7gIo... If you’d like to get physical, @yyzrecords.bsky.social have your back. Wishing you all a beautiful weekend.

Brighton never misses 🤍 Word from @yyzrecords.bsky.social HQ is that there is just ONE Home Truths CD left. Thank you all so much. If you’d like to make my weekend: yyzrecords.bandcamp.com/album/home-t...

An absolute dream to catch Cindy (@toughloverecords.bsky.social) at Chats Palace, with The Gabys debut live performance as support. Two beautifully unique bands holding a rapt audience in the palm of their hands. Huge thanks to @upset-the-rhythm.bsky.social for making indie pop dreams come true.

Home Truths is a week old 🩵 Thank you for the orders, radio play and kind words. There are three CDs remaining, made with love and care by the team at @yyzrecords.bsky.social. Attached to this photo is the original demo recording of Tripping. Much love. yyzrecords.bandcamp.com/album/home-t...

An absolute privilege to catch a Sunday evening set at The Village Vanguard, New York City. To be in such an intimate space where incredible talents such as John Coltrane and Bill Evans did their thing was a deeply moving experience.

An overwhelming experience visiting 437 East 12th Street in the East Village, where Arthur Russell spent the last years of his life creating some of his most enduring, exceptional work…

Totally blown away to see my album Home Truths as a tangible thing. The biggest thank you to @yyzrecords.bsky.social. Thank you to all who have bagged a copy, just four CDs left: yyzrecords.bandcamp.com/album/home-t...

Hi all 🤍 My debut mini album Home Truths is out now on @yyzrecords.bsky.social. These songs exist simply because they have to, I hope you’ll find something that resonates: yyzrecords.bandcamp.com/album/home-t...

Greetings from a beautiful but chilly Boston 🩵 All the love to @yyzrecords.bsky.social. Home Truths is out tomorrow…

First time in Boston, Massachusetts and doing it right. A couple of Newbury Comics exclusives (including Elliott Smith for the 15y/o) and The Beach Boys’ Smile Sessions from the wonderful Good Taste Records. All kept safe and warm with my epic @modottiband.bsky.social tote ❤️

This quietly astounding album by The Occasional Keepers (@letthemeatwake.bsky.social) has been blowing my tiny mind all over again in recent days. A beautiful listen from start to finish: ltmrecordings.bandcamp.com/album/true-n...
