“The Wonky Pop website sets out a manifesto that states that “We want to show the world that pop is not a four letter word, and for every flaky reality TV winner there’s a myriad of cool, credible and weird acts”.” — Indeed ‘pop’ is not a four-letter word. It’s three. It’s also a palindrome. Are you a fan? I sure am.

New song: ‘Let You Go’ - Dimbleby & Capper (@dimblebycapper)

Let You Go by Dimbleby&Capper

This will be released as a single (b/w ‘Raise It Right) in March on Tape Records.

For loads more stuff I’ve said about D&C, go here and put either ‘Dimbleby’ or ‘Capper’ or ‘Dimbleby and Capper’ (or some variation) in the little search box which I may or may not have labelled in Welsh.
