Some exciting news …

Brilliant band The Catenary Wires have very cleverly put some of my poems to music. The result is an album called 'Sounds Made by Humans', available in May.

It can be pre-ordered on vinyl & CD here: linktr.ee/brianbilston
A pic of the album cover: a room full of musical instruments and a pile of books where the singer should be. A pic of the lovely flowery CD version of the album. A pic of the lovely green vinyl version.
