Per Diem.
For each day.
Sometimes I draw things.
Sometimes I see faces.

Other times I play music.

I’ve made an additional 7 of these ‘Daniel’ Lino print cards to accompany the ‘Chuffing Brilliant Bundles’ on bandcamp, which include a CD featuring all 3 singles, a T shirt & Badge Set. There’s about 3 bundles left. If anyone would like one, feel free to message me directly since bandcamp Fridays are apparently no more. Fun fact: When I made these prints, I was listening to a live performance of Nina Simone during a thunder storm. It was brilliant. 👌⚡️⛈

Just wanted to pay homage to this naughty little vinyl (1 of only 40) that decided to go AWOL in the post for many months, travelling as far as Sweden and back to Wales before reaching its (intended) final destination in the US of A. Thanks so much to @smallaubrey for being incredibly patient and also for documenting this wonderful moment of much-anticipated unpacking!! 😂🎸🎸🎸💌📮🎁

Here we have La - (who provided some dolphin vocals on Matilda, FYI ❤️) - doing her best impersonation of a moody catalogue model 😂, while demonstrating some of the recreational pursuits ideally suited to Girl From Winter Jargon attire, including, (but not limited to) feeding some nice cows some handfuls of grass and hanging around under remote bridges along the riverside, and pretending to be Madonna.
T Shirts can be ordered directly from myself (they also come in dark green.) To those who have ordered them already, they’ll be on the way to you very soon!
I will absolutely repost your best catalogue model poses if anyone wishes to send some. Thank you. 😘

Having a little sing song. Blowing off the cobwebs as it were. 🕸 What was the most worthwhile thing you did today? This time last week I rescued a bee from being cut to shreds by a lawnmower. It gave me a sense of enormous well-bee-ing. 🐝

Premiering tonight on YouTube at 8.30pm is “Radio Silence” - a fan-made reaction film to “Song For The Waves...” (This is a little teaser.... actual link to premiere in IG bio or here https://youtu.be/HVhZ-wE0ybA)
.
“Radio Silence" is a fan's "reaction video" to Song For The Waves" - a song by Girl From Winter Jargon that was lathe-cut to vinyl, (a manual process, strictly limited to 40 copies only @bladudflies ) and posted through 'snail mail' to listeners in England, Belgium and the States via local indie record label, @butterflyeffectlabel .
This short film was sent in by a fan who did not wish to be named or credited and is, perhaps, in some ways - an antidote to a world obsessed with endless streams of flashing, snapping, blink-and-you'll-miss-it content. I imagine the film's pace might be unbearably slow for some, but may also be exactly right for those who like to take their time and savour experiences. (It’s a Goldilocks / marmite thing) Clocking at just under 11 minutes, I'd highly recommend getting yourself a nice beverage and sitting down to watch something that has been described as an old school, low budget art film - something akin to Donnie Darko meets David Lynch? A big thank you to the "deranged fan" (their words, not mine) for putting this together and also to everyone who bought the vinyl too. ❤️💀🏴‍☠️

Meet Daniel. For clarification, Daniel is the weird little character that I designed to accompany my single release with @butterflyeffectlabel . (He looks like a Daniel, don’t you think??) His imagery is based solely on the lyrics that can be heard in Song For The Waves (as illustrated). I’ve been sprucing him up a bit and will probably turn him into a T Shirt. Does anyone particularly care whether or not said T shirt actually has “Girl From Winter Jargon” written anywhere on it? I personally do not, but if anyone has a strong opinion on this (especially if you plan on buying a T Shirt from me) please speak up now or forever hold your peace.

Incase anyone was ever curious about my name, I.e

Incase anyone was ever curious about my name, I.e - the ridiculously wordy moniker that is “Girl From Winter Jargon” - @isaidyeahblog recently covered the subject in their interview/review piece for Song For The Waves/Matilda/Without Apology - the full article of which can be found here: https://istoodupandisaidyeah.music.blog/2021/04/09/girl-from-winter-jargon-song-for-the-waves-matilda/ - (or via the link in *their* IG bio)
.
.
Fun fact: Historically, my being asked “What does Winter Jargon mean?” has always been a much-avoided question, met with real-time awkward responses of umms, arrs, and stumped silences - so much so, that Winter Jargon’s drummer (Sam) would often interject and tell people that the name ‘came to me in a dream**....’

Here are a couple of highlights from @isaidyeahblog who recently wrote a big massive chuffer of a bumper piece on Girl From Winter Jargon, which includes an interview (conversation) with myself, plus coverage of all my single releases so far -[Song For The Waves/Matilda/Without Apology]

Reading the entire piece in full context comes highly recommended; (if you like that sort of thing) hats off to the indie blogosphere with their infectious uppercase-worthy names... I STOOD UP AND SAID YEAH!!! 🦾🙌🏻👊🏻[insert empowering emojis here]

Teaser no.2 for ‘Radio Silence’ - AKA “A Deranged Fan Reacts to Song For The Waves on Vinyl” 🎧 💀🧜‍♂️🎸🌊 The full 11 minute short film will be uploaded soon. This whole thing was very unexpected and a little bit Lynchian in places, so I’m still processing it....

Note to self: Must include backward dive bombs on future songs.

Thank you to @isaidyeahblog for this truly brilliant and excellently written piece of indie-blog journalism. I felt that Adam totally understood where I was coming from (and what I was going for) with Song For The Waves & Matilda. In general, it’s a good flipping blog too. I suppose that’s what you can expect with writing that’s passion-driven. Please do click through to the link in the bio @isaidyeahblog for the full review/interview. I’ll probably post some excerpts soon...

This is a teaser for a short film called ‘Radio

This is a teaser for a short film called ‘Radio Silence.’ It was sent me last month by someone who has asked to be credited - not by name - but as “a deranged fan.” (I’m not making this up, I promise!) I was told it was going to be a reaction video of said person hearing “Song For The Waves” for the first time on one of the sold out copies of my 7” double A side single which was released with @butterflyeffectlabel @bladudflies back in February. I had no idea what to expect, needless to say, it wasn’t this! The accompanying note that came with the short film (which is just under 11 minutes long) reads...

“Dearest rachel... I present to you ‘radio silence’ ... beware: it’s part sad, part creepy, part hilarious but completely bonkers!”

I’ll post the entire film online soon, but will post the other 2 teasers that were sent to me first. 🖤

This inexplicably disappeared from my last post so I’ll include it here. This was my debut single, Without Apology; it’s a sardonic interwoven clarinet circus of a song with a bit of random slap bass. A bit of a mad song to be honest. BBC 6 liked it. I liked it too. It’s also on bandcamp as a digital download & includes my first ever live BBC Session with Bob Fischer. Today is bandcamp Friday; 100% profits from sales go directly to artists/bands, so let’s all please chip in where possible and help me purchase that shark. 🦈 Thanks.

It’s bandcamp Friday, which means 100% sale profits go directly to Artists/Bands.❤️ I’ve a number of digital downloads available if anyone’s interested: Song For The Waves, Matilda, Without Apology and 3 x BBC Live Sessions with @nickyrob__ @riannekate and Bob Fischer @bbcintroducingnortheastyorks - A big thank you to @robirishmedia for creating these lovely surprise promos for Song For The Waves & Matilda. If you aren’t buying my music today, please buy someone else’s... it’d be silly not to... but If you were planning on buying mine, please be generous... I’m saving up for a shark.🦈
