about

The title track from the album Ordinary Things. After a show of all our quiet acoustic songs a friend, Gillian Francis, said, I could listen to that all day, why don't you record an album of all those songs.... so we did. We started recording in January 2020 and of course the next two years threw everyone into a new world. The album grew as we remembered more songs from a site specific show we make and perform called KlangHaus. We take over buildings and create a promenade gig with instruments set up in several rooms and films responding to the acoustic of the space, the architectural features, the history of the place and the ghosts. Small audiences are taken on a journey through the building and find themselves inside the music.... partly because there is no stage, we are all standing together in the sound and in the projected light and films. It's an affecting adventure in sound and light. We love it and the critics have sung our praises n all...‘One show that truly delivers the shock of the new, the most innovative presentation of live music I’ve ever seen – a total game-changer’
Alex Needham, The Guardian
★★★★★ ‘a blast of aural and visual magic . . . a joy-inducing original’
Donald Hutera, The Times.

lyrics

Ordinary Things

And when your garden’s ordinary
And your own back yard is ordinary

Don’t lose your head
Don’t break your back on it

We are just ordinary things
Ordinary things
Ordinary things

And when your hope is ordinary
And your big surprise is ordinary

Don’t be alarmed
Just keep a hold on it
We are just ordinary things

Ordinary things
Ordinary things
Ordinary things

Ordinary things
Ordinary things
Ordinary things
Ordinary things ooh

And when your friends are ordinary
And your love is ordinary

Don’t lose your mind
Don’t let it slip away

We are just ordinary things
Ordinary things
Ordinary things

Conceived in a vast DDR radio studio and developed under self-imposed limitations and rules of spontaneity, it is a daring, raw, fragile and bold expression blending experimentation, art, noise, melody and kosmische attitude ... more
