Funpark Fugitives

@routenote I've praised you in the past. However, I can't say I'm satisfied by your current service level. I uploaded a tune (UPC 5063766929591) on 23/05/25 and have seen no progress, and no response to support ticket (opened 4 June) or email (sent yesterday). Wots going on?

We are witnessing a very sad moment in American history. The President of the United States is aligning himself with the dictator of Russia, Vladimir Putin, to undermine the independence of Ukraine and its democracy. Here are my thoughts:

I see our pal @noisedeluxe (aka Simon from Leeds power-poppers @thelasthurrah2) has released a new single "Awake Me". This one delivers melodic 70s rock with a 90s anthemic vibe, wrapped in Simon's trademark tasteful production values. Check it out 👍 open.spotify.com/album/2MJmfpIp…

@we_make_culture @YouthMusic @PRSFoundation @PPLUK @TNLComFund @SunderlandUK @Cultural_Spring @NickAlexanderMT @STyne_Council @EnglishHeritage @Washington73323 Cool infographics, as ever. Those awards on page 2 👏👏👏

The stats we ❤️ to see! It’s been such a busy season, but we're infinitely proud of each project, performance, music-making session & workshop delivered! Big thanks to our core team, facilitators, partner organisations & funders: none of this would be possible without all of you!

@Nath_Brudenell Cheers! Purchased 👍

@Nath_Brudenell @TheHardQuartet Surprised this isn't already a sellout. Maybe it got lost in the pre-Xmas rush? Get on it people, this'll be ace!

Are you aware of @TheHardQuartet ? 🙇 Made up of Emmett Kelly, Stephen Malkmus, Matt Sweeney & Jim White and featured in basically everyone's end of 2024 lists - these guys are the business. 📈 There are still some tickets left below - lets go. 👇 ➡️ bit.ly/TheHardQuartet…

Five years ago we lost Neil Peart, genius drummer and lyricist with @rushtheband. I wrote and recorded this song to make some sense of the sad news. #NeilPeart open.spotify.com/track/5igW1pDb…

@Nath_Brudenell Looking forward to Thursday night at the Brudenell, should be a cracking first gig of 2025 for me 👍

It's a SOLD OUT UK tour for The Jesus Lizard and it begins tonight! 🦎 👋 GLASGOW / MANCHESTER / LEEDS / BRISTOL / LONDON / BRIGHTON 👋 Where are we seeing you? These shows will be unreal. ⚡️

@fieldmusicmusic @qobuz I use Qobuz too. It's annual subscription option makes it cheaper than Spotify for me, with the advantage of lossless & hi rez streaming. It also pays artists much more £ than Spotify...

Happy New Year! Before I get down to real work of touting all the gigs we've got coming up, I'm going to recommend (again) an alternative to the big streamers. I've been using @qobuz for a while - it's like having a record collection on your computer. qobuz.com/gb-en/discover

@holamiguel @UKMusicCity @fieldmusicmusic @ChuckProphet Cheers Mike, I appreciate that 👍 Happy New Year to you, hope to see you soon.

@funparkfugitive @UKMusicCity @fieldmusicmusic @ChuckProphet You have right to be....sounds fab! 🙏

New music out today! Two tunes recorded up in Sunlun @UKMusicCity at FMHQ with David & Peter @fieldmusicmusic A-side gives early Crazy Horse vibes, with big lyrical nod to @ChuckProphet B-side is spacey with Astral Weeks swing... I'm proud as hell ❤️ funparkfugitives.bandcamp.com/album/throw-yo…

Available now at @Bandcamp, Spotify and all your regular streaming services. BIG thanks to David & Peter @fieldmusicmusic for bringing their magic ✨️ to these tunes 🎶 open.spotify.com/album/6Uq9Es00…

New music on its way in the form of two tunes recorded up in Sunderland @UKMusicCity with our friends @fieldmusicmusic - hitting @Bandcamp and streaming services on Friday 3 Jan 2025 👍

@ChuckProphet You know the story, right? 😉

OK, OK, OK. I’m going in. I am now strapping myself to a tree with roots and headed for the new dylan biopic. Wish me luck!

Gig 75/24 - back to @Nath_Brudenell for a night of swampy, good-time rock & roll from top-drawer tribute band Creedence Clearwater Revival Revival. Plenty of deep-cuts to satisfy the very enthusiastic sellout crowd. Shoutout to opener Rory Holl, superior acoustic toubadour 👍

@noisedeluxe @thelasthurrah2 @SteveDan61 🇪🇺👍

It's good to hear new music from @noisedeluxe (side-project of Simon from @thelasthurrah2). After recent synthy diversions Simon has returned to classic guitar pop territory, with a bright & jangly a-side and darker, psych-grooved b-side. Check it out! open.spotify.com/album/5GEINwKz…

@ChuckProphet @kexp Thanks @ChuckProphet and @kexp, you spoil us ❤️

Our @kexp session is now streaming on YouTube. Always a treat to chill with Kevin Cole in the KEXP studios. Punchy mix courtesy of Kevin Suggs (legend). youtube.com/watch?v=er6FLV…
