My brand new EP is available now, at all the usual stockists. You can download the record from Bandcamp aswell (I get paid more reasonably by them!)
If you’re into Tees and Hoodies, I have knocked a couple of them up as well. Simply click on the thumbnail and it will take you to the product in my Rapanui store.

Ello.
I am now available for bookings via Live & Loud.
Obviously you can always contact me directly, but if you are on of the 5000 venues in the UK that are connected to Live & Loud, you may find it easier to use the booking service they provide.

Ayup!
Just a heads up that I am now on a social media site called Minds.com. It’s a pro free speech, anti censorship platform, so right up my street.
Give us a follow if you like – www.minds.com/garethicke

Ayup!
I chatted to Richard of the Tin Foil Hats Podcast yesterday.

The Travelling Band project was an 8 date UK Arts Council project. Different songwriters and poets from the Derby area, were taken to a particular town or village, and given the task of writing a song in a couple of hours, and then performing that song to the people of that town or village, that evening.
Here are a couple of clips from day one in Belper, Derbyshire.
And here is the track, performed live… while reading lyrics from a sheet. My memory is pretty good, but it ain’t that good.

Oi!
It’s only in an alpha level of testing, but there is a brand new social media site called OnStellar. It’s been set up as a one stop shop that will provide everything that all the other sites provide, but in one place.
Come say hello. I’m at alpha.onstellar.com/garethicke

As I mentioned before, I have reformed my old punk band, Kody. Turlough, Steve, Tim and Myself have been working on a couple of new tracks, 13 years since we last played together.
We have the masters back from Nada Mastering in New York. We love them.
We are heading down South to film a pair of music videos for the tracks in two weeks.
‘What this is, is what we give’ and ‘Loves giving it, hates taking it’ will then be released across the usual digital culprits, iTunes, Amazon, Spotify etc.
Can’t wait for you to hear them.
Hopefully after 13+ years apart, we will get together for a couple of shows aswell, near the end of the year.

For those of you that haven’t known me for a while, I used to be in a punk rock band called Kody, many years ago. We did a fair bit, touring in the UK and America, and releasing a fair few records.
After 13 years the four of us have got back together to record another record.
It’s just starting off as a single and B side, but it was a really good crack, and I confess, I have the bug back.
As soon as the record is mixed and mastered, we will get a video out asap. We have to go under the name ‘We Were Kody’ as someone has already jumped into our named grave.
For now, have a wee look at our Facebook and Twitter.
