A glorious stumbling mess of instruments and muddy tweed has just stumbled back from another glorious Glastonbury festival.

This incarnation of Perhaps Contraption is preparing to record an album in October.

If you like what you saw and heard, please sign up to our (spontaneous, never spammy) mailing list and we will alert you when the piece is complete, and also upcoming live outbursts…

7 happy souls trudged through that delicious Glasto sludge-mud and sang til our voices began to crack; with a total of 11 gigs over the weekend (and various processional parps inbetween venues to boot).

Places we shrieked at included;

The Bandstand,

HMS Sweet Charity,

The Rabbit Hole

And most notably

The incredible underground piano bar in the Dragon’s field next to the

Stone circle (who kept us very perky at 4.00am with moonshine and exemplary scrumpy).

Kudos to Iain, our relentless Sousaphone player, who appeared to consistently honk his wonders out for the entire weekend; in all weather conditions! And for the whole Contraption for sticking through it.

Thanks to everyone that came out to a show, and/or stumbled across one and leant us their ears and voices for a while.

Other than that we hope to see you at one of our next festivals –

Fling in Chelmsford (acoustic show, poetry tent)

Lovebox

Secret Garden Party

And

Playgroup Festival
