  • We decided to ditch soulless plastic CD's and release our album primarily as a beautiful handmade book containing our lyrics in poem form, with specially commissioned greyscale artworks alongside them. Each book is handbound (stitched) and finished by a wonderful local (Hebden Bridge, UK) maker, Sarah Quick, using sustainably sourced materials.

    The illustrations come from 9 artists: Deedee Biott, Domenique Brouwers, Taylor Campbell, Alan Coulson, Sam Leeming, Charlotte Mellor Meecham, Alice Mill, Julia Ogden and Raven Rosetti.

    The idea was to make something that really values the efforts of everyone involved, something special that people will love to hold for years to come. A physical way of expressing and sharing the joy we’ve experienced through our first year and a half of making music together, rehearsing and recording in Rog’s little blue cabin on the moors.

    Approx. measurements: 16.5cm x 13cm x 1cm
    Materials: Pages are handmade cream Khadi rag paper, Cover is powder grey Merchant & Mills linen.

    Includes unlimited streaming of Twice via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

lyrics

it’s there if you want it, and it’s there if not

if aim prevents my change to dust
how come it always turns to lust?

if it’s all that you wanted, why didn’t you stop?
if it’s all that you wanted, why didn’t you stop and start again?

it’s there if you want it, and it’s there if not

if scars reveal mistaken paths
how come we never learn to laugh?

if it’s all that you wanted, why didn’t you stop?
if it’s all that you wanted, why didn’t you stop and start again?

about

"Johnny Powell, is still teetering on the edge of troubled genius with this new clutch of soul-scraping, larynx-wobbling freak-folk vignettes."
(24/7 Magazine - 4.5/5)

"Exciting times lay ahead for Johnny Powell and co."
(BBC Introducing)
