my good friend kitty and i have recently been venturing into pastures new in terms of holiday activities. after the success of our 'cheap!' canvas bags at susanna edwards' budgie show in hackney, we decided that this was something that we could do over the summer to fund our alcohol purchases. using a stolen screen from college, some half price inks and a lot of patience, 'catparts' was born.
so we know someone who knows someone who is responsible for promoting local bands, and we contacted him to ask if he wanted any merch. he obliged and gave us 'klaus says buy the record', a brighton-based troubadour who weaves endearing tales of lost love. i have met klaus aka jon mills on a few occasions in the past and he's a thoroughly nice guy with an enthralling aura about him, so we were delighted to get such a gig (moreover he was recently crowned winner of Red Stripe Music Award, a nationwide search for unsigned talent, that pushed him into the spotlight of the main stage at Great Escape festival in brighton... look

if anyone cares, our 'cheap!' bags are being exhibited in Tatty Devine on brick lane now.
