Some of the more observant of you out there may have noticed the almost unmentioned name change of the artist formerly known as Joy Tourette.

Well, we thought we would wait until we had all her upgrades fully installed before we announced the arrival of the one and only queen of the skies, Kellie The Eagle!

Many of you out there have asked me; "Why the name change?", and to be honest, I don't really know. All I do know is that since the name change she has been played on BBC Radio 6 twice and made Outline Magazine's 'Track of the Month', which is a pretty good return on a name change, maybe we should all try one!

Joy Tourette maybe gone, but she is certainly not forgotten and will remain with us until the end of time in the form of the 'Cassiopeia' EP, which is available as Limited Edition CD and digital download from the Monkey Love Shop.

You can also see Kellie The Eagle playing live at the end of month @ the Norwich Art Centre, more info can be found here.

Kellie The Eagle's 'Cassiopeia' is 'Track of the Month' in this month's Outline magazine.

This track appears on the 'Cassiopeia' EP that Kellie The Eagle recorded under the guise of Joy Tourette and is available as a Limited Edition CD in the Monkey Love Shop.

Outline also gave a preview of our upcoming show by announcing;

"Monkey Love Records aurally say "Ta-dah, this is our tuneful armoury" when they present a showcase of their label favourites at the NAC on the 29th, including Red Cassette, Kellie The Eagle, Four Annas, Robberriff and sonofsam, all acts being of hugely high calibre...I like the way they la, la, la."

Many thanks to Emma for her wonderful words. More info on this event can be found by clicking the image below.

Stay tuned banana fans,

Norwich Arts Centre was the place to be last weekend as it hosted the debut Clutter City Market, a new, alternative market selling one-of-a-kind goods from clothes and jewellery to music and art. We were there with the fab products from our shop.

There was an impressive turn out by the people of Norwich and the vendors showed a high degree of quality in the work they were selling. There was also great tasting food and live music all day!

If you fancy coming down to the next one or have some cool stuff you want to sell visit the Clutter City website for more details,
