A few acoustic tunes with Emily Weedon and Martin Crawford. Their band Delta is hosting the evening. I’ll be on around 7:30ish I think?
Queen Ann’s Lace is a song I recorded a demo for a while back and never did anything with, as is so often the case. While trolling around the Internet Archive last week I came across a short animation film that caught my eye.
It seemed to me that it was a film perfectly suited as a music video for Queen Ann’s Lace. The song itself is slightly bizarre but pretty and the video is pretty quirky but has an edge to it. So I mashed them together and found that the contrast actually worked really well. So I think.
The film was made by Tim Drage of Spite Your Face Productions in London, UK. I emailed him to see if it was okay to mess with his work and he was quite gracious. Enough blabbing:
