I saw them at what transpired to be their first ever UK gig, supporting The Men at the Garage last week. Debut album ‘Light Up Gold’ is phenomenal - sort of like Wire-meets-The Strokes. Which to me, is a very very good thing.</p> <p>They also don’t ‘do’ photos. The band’s single (that we knew or had) press shot was them eating, and you weren’t quite sure if it was the band in it (it was). I was pre-warned (twice) about them not doing anything you want; not posing, not moving, not looking at the camera.</p> <p>Turns out they were lovely - and didn’t mind the camera, just didn’t want to pose. So I snapped away while chatting, and the results work quite well within the feature - like it’s mid-interview.</p>http://blog.emmaswann.co.uk/post/46606003265http://blog.emmaswann.co.uk/post/46606003265Fri, 29 Mar 2013 17:35:38 +0000parquet courtsdiy weekly25th marchpublished<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/208fed8ed18150d0c627abb5512408df/tumblr_mkfn2gYd1y1r9wz5do1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>The Child Of Lov for <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/diy-weekly/id609786090?mt=8&uo=4" target="_blank">DIY Weekly</a>.</p>http://blog.emmaswann.co.uk/post/46605264529http://blog.emmaswann.co.uk/post/46605264529Fri, 29 Mar 2013 17:25:28 +0000the child of lovcole williamsdiydiy weekly25th marchlondonshoreditchblue hatportraitipadtabletpublished<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/917e23029ca1435c6921c411fdefe4b1/tumblr_mkfmnnZepp1r9wz5do1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Edwyn Collins in his studio in London for <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/diy-weekly/id609786090?mt=8&uo=4" target="_blank">DIY Weekly</a>.</p>http://blog.emmaswann.co.uk/post/46604609020http://blog.emmaswann.co.uk/post/46604609020Fri, 29 Mar 2013 17:16:35 +0000diy weekly25th marchedwyn collinslondonwest hampsteadwest heath studiosportraitfeatureinterview<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/13fc59f5feec79670aae890de50b2972/tumblr_mkacu7sXB71r9wz5do1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>My photo on the front of this week’s <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/diy-weekly/id609786090?mt=8&uo=4" target="_blank">DIY Weekly</a>!</p>http://blog.emmaswann.co.uk/post/46361755703http://blog.emmaswann.co.uk/post/46361755703Tue, 26 Mar 2013 20:56:30 +0000peacebanddiy weekly25th marchipadtabletmagazinebrighton beach<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/2b393c85ea9b65fcb0ffca1c46380887/tumblr_mk4r65zUzn1r9wz5do1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://blog.emmaswann.co.uk/post/46099742617http://blog.emmaswann.co.uk/post/46099742617Sat, 23 Mar 2013 20:42:57 +0000londondeptford gothportraitmusiciandaniel woolhousepeckhamsouth londondiy weekly<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/e7430c43148a1d8c083374575a49eb9f/tumblr_mk326zSsdQ1r9wz5do1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/a680da193e778b25d9a7ee6cfe5bb7f0/tumblr_mk326zSsdQ1r9wz5do2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p>Gnarwolves, Blood Red Shoes and METZ in the March 2013 issue of DIY.</p>http://blog.emmaswann.co.uk/post/46020850428http://blog.emmaswann.co.uk/post/46020850428Fri, 22 Mar 2013 22:23:23 +0000march 2013diymagazineprintpublishedblood red shoesmetzgnarwolveslivephotographytear sheet<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/06500cb1e761ad12f262545f33617083/tumblr_mk31ynb3nP1r9wz5do1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Chlöe Howl in the March 2013 issue of DIY.</p>http://blog.emmaswann.co.uk/post/46020451630http://blog.emmaswann.co.uk/post/46020451630Fri, 22 Mar 2013 22:18:23 +0000Chlöe Howlmarch 2013diymagazineportraitmusiciansingerpopneuinterview<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/6c88b2fce6b964033ceae3bc1866e4ce/tumblr_mk310ttB9o1r9wz5do1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/fe438d8b2d78717f69d9f2e09218723d/tumblr_mk310ttB9o1r9wz5do2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p><a href="http://www.thisisfakediy.co.uk/magazine" target="_blank">Bastille, DIY March 2013</a></p> <p>The first spread features a live shot, taken on stage behind the band at Brixton Academy.
