October! We’ve very pleased to announce Raf and O are going to play live, as part of the Oxjam Festival run by Kaparte Promotions at Club Surya, Sat 27th October. A great roster of artists shall make for a special night for a noble cause. We are opening the event and will be playing at 7pm on the dot, so come EARLY!!  For details see end of blog.

The gig at the Buffalo Bar in September (which saw us supporting the excellent Prescott) was very beautifully documented by the Chaos Engineers who took pictures of us in action – see below.

And in December, as the end of 2012 approaches…some more live excitement with a very special gig in a very special place – watch this space!

We’re finally putting the last touches on the artwork and one more piece is going to be especially recorded to be included in the album; this has now become an integral part of the live set. Working hard and will bring you some more news very soon. x

Hello!
Very happy to announce  that we’ve just finished remixing the wonderful Nedry’s new single Violaceae! It’s a lovely track in its original form and we’ve put our own take on it. Please check it out HERE

Raf and O are still in smiley face mode after launching (quite literally) the new material to such an appreciative audience, thanks again and to Kaparte for hosting us and to Will Connor and Crewdson for really cool sets.
Now…just few days to go to our gig supporting the amazing Rude Mechanicals this Friday 30th March in Stokey at ‘The Others’ for their new video launch. Details HERE

Hello 2012 – We Knew You’d Still Be Here

New !!
We’re thoroughly excited to say we’ve now completed our second album…
Eleven tracks, developed through experimentation and reconfiguring who does what and how, whilst keeping a weather eye on the live show.
Allied to this Raf and O are also putting the finishing touches to a collaborative album with Robert Logan.

We’ll be posting info and some stuff onto Soundcloud in the next few days, so you can hear what we’ve all been up to.

Last year saw us working on an arrangement of David Bowie‘s ‘Lady Grinning Soul’ from 1973’s album Aladdin Sane. Bowie has been a huge and long standing influence of Raf’s, as it’s his 65th birthday today, we thought we’d record it and share it, we’ve run ahead with enthusiasm, but it proves to be more complicated/ involving to share as first thought. So it may have to wait. Still, happy Birthday David!

Next up…brand new Raf and O material.
