D’day folks and thanks for stopping by. Will be offering new and old music, occasionally raiding one of my 45’s to bring you something special!

Ladyhawke
Written by oliviawallwork
Again, this is not Jos, but Olivia, one of the new assistants here at Abubilla. I am here to write a bit of a follow up post to the last blog (which yes, was written over 2 years ago… But at least I’m here now!)
I, also like Abubilla, did not realise that Ladyhawke was from New Zealand! So, as she’s had a new album out this year, I thought I’d give you all a few more deats on her and some videos from her album.
She was born Phillipa ‘Pip’ Brown and was initially part of a band named Two Lane Blacktop, as the lead guitarist.
Two Lane Blacktop – who got their name from the 1971 film – then broke up and Pip joined another band, Teenager in Australia. After an album, she went solo, by the name Ladyhawke – the 1985 Richard Donner movie!
She released her first EP, Paris is Burning, in 2006 and her latest album, Anxiety was released this year. After a quick listen, this album feels a perfect follow up to her debut album, the eponymous Ladyhawke, again a mix of rock and electronic beats. Also, the videos are super cool – love the colours and style!
SHE HAS A HORSE WITH A SKELETON PAINTED ON IT!
