The Old Forge (Monday 27th May 2019)

A couple of years ago I started off what I hope will become a luxuriant fernery in the border at the back of the car port, below the dog rose that I blipped a couple of days ago, whose petals have since been shedding. There are five or more varieties of fern here of which this, which came from Christie's garden last year, is the most established and has now begun this year's growth.

I finished processing the shots from the Hawk Conservancy outing the following day but there have been delays in uploading each batch because the Flickr site has been migrating servers and having a massive overhaul. However the complete album is now online, if interested:

Mega Bog - London (recorded 2016)
(from the album Happy Together)
According to her website, "Mega Bog is the moniker of song-dribbler Erin Birgy, a Pacific Northwest rodeo child with an unmistakable laugh who was allegedly cursed upon conception. Over the past 8 years the band has stretched and wandered in a crescendo towards musical freedom. Now based in New Mexico, Birgy has adopted a band of wiggly jazz cartoons lifted from bands like Big Thief, iji, Big Eater, Pillwonder, Causings, Hand Habits, Heatwarmer, Little Angry and others.
"Melodies always lush, erotic, and free. Chords always dissonant, abstract and evolutionary. Dizzying fusion of lounge, pop and bouncing rocks under poetic tantrums of love gone all the way wrong. Listen closer."
I heard this song when it was chosen by Cate Le Bon for inclusion on Lauren Laverne's 6 Music show.
She has spent the last ten years channeling, capturing, and releasing her unique bouquet of fragrant, sci-fi pop experiments with a handful of bicoastal collaborators. Mega Bog has visited a significant portion of the Western world, frequently looping the USA and Europe to sing in tiny art spaces and haunted historical theaters alike. The live concerts are known for their emotional unpredictability. Onstage, Erin’s current mood is amplified, for better or for worse; she is an honest and unflinching performer." - Bandcamp
