I'll be singing, playing pitch shifted guitar and whatnot in Coventry with @linesofsilence.com in September. We've been creating a brand new extended set, with new material. 🎵 🎛

Mixing begins with Ian... the time of day, the speakers all make a difference in my ears. I take good time on this step. I'm arranging not just the instrumentation but also the building mood.

Hazelene @hazelene.bsky.social · Aug 11

Wow thank you for this, I've only just discovered your post! Glad you've enjoyed, I'm working on more. 💛🎵

Hazelene @hazelene.bsky.social · Aug 8

Recording drums for my second single with Ian Flynn, at Gunfactory in London. Love playing real drums, I miss it! 🥁🥁💜✨️

Hazelene @hazelene.bsky.social · Aug 4

Back in the studio again with the incredible Ian Flynn in London to record my 2nd single. Studio days are intense but also a supreme highlight of my year. 💛✨️🎛 Loads of layering on this next track, months on this song trying to find its sweet points. I am the band, it was like a gig load in!

Hazelene @hazelene.bsky.social · Jul 8

I won't say that studio time is booked for mixing the second single, but there will be signs...📸 @lillycreightmore.bsky.social

Today marks one year since the release of "Every Loss." Finally, I'm able to work on the rest of the demos! Come to The Shoegaze Cafe Manchester on Sat 31 May and you can hear me perform this song (if I can remember the chords 🤭).

Hazelene @hazelene.bsky.social · Mar 18

Thank you for this and sorry for the delay in responding! This is so kind! 🙏

Hazelene @hazelene.bsky.social · Mar 18

Awww thank you! I really did enjoy writing this!

@assistantband.bsky.social asked me if I would contribute to his bijoux zine; I leapt at the chance! It's packed with great bands/writing, a joy to edit together this piece. You can order on their Bandcamp (I've got both the recent CD and zine pictured). Thank you for this wonderful experience!

My stats say that NewDad's Angel is my Nr 1 track but I enjoyed so many this year (and I keep finding new ones when looking at everybody's best of)
I put some of my fav on this 🍏 playlist (only use spotify as a release radar)

Have a fantastic HNY ✨🍾

Thank you! I've been so swept up in other non musical "life admin" things, sadly taking me away from music at the moment. But it was really good to slow down, and write this piece, I do truly miss feature writing.

Hazelene @hazelene.bsky.social · Dec 13

I contributed a piece about place and its effect on my music. Really honoured to have been asked to compose a piece, the list of contributors to this 'zine is stellar. Excited to get my copy and read the other pieces!

Assistant @assistant.bandcamp.com · Dec 12

Coming soon I think...

The second issue of the Assistant fanzine IN THE APRIL SUN will be on sale soon - this image shows a draft cover (a photo of Matera in Southern Italy) and a note that says the contents haven't been finalised yet, but flags Assistant, Hazelene, Precious Recordings, Spinout Nuggets, Shopfires, Stubai, Mt. Misery, Goodbye Wudaokou, RE Seraphin, Wally TBM on tour and The Girl With The Replaceable Head as featuring. Hurray.

Cath came round to the Lines of Silence gig at Aatma in Manchester (opening for Vieon) and posted her photos. Thank you!

Cath Aubergine @cathaubergine.bsky.social · Dec 1

Lines Of Silence absolutely fantastic in Manchester last night, if you are near Todmorden then you can catch them tonight, highly recommended

Hazelene @hazelene.bsky.social · Dec 11

I've been gigging with @linesofsilence.bsky.social ! Yes we're hoping for more in 2025. 🙏

Lines of Silence @linesofsilence.com · Dec 2

One more gig last night at the Golden Lion, Todmorden - now time for a bit of a lie down. Hopefully more in the new year!

Now playing this rather lovely April Magazine CD, Falling Window, that I picked up at their recent London gig.
6 incredible new tracks that, hopefully might make their way to bandcamp at some point.
