Last year we were completely moved by some footage we found of Loie Fuller's Serpentine Dance. She inspired the pioneers of film, appearing in all the early films of the late 1800's and early 1900's. To celebrate the season and to a great year, we got together with our favourite video team and created this film to accompany Kalimba 3, one of the instrumental pieces from 'Fault Lines' which will be released in 2018. The song was one of the early recordings for the record and was born when we found the tiniest thumb piano we had ever seen sitting at the back of a drawer. A total mystery to how it got there but had been there for at least 15 years and was waiting to sing.
Directed and Produced by Robin Lang and New Motion Films
Choreography by Lillane Smith

Have a wonderful 2018!

We are very excited to announce the release of the single and video for 'New Years' the first single from our album Fault Lines. We worked with an incredible team of people in a collaboration with modern experimental dancers/choreographers Emilie Morin and Danielle Denichaud, from Canada, Lili Smith from Netherlands, and producer/director Robin Lang to create a broken mirror dreamscape of soul twins and fractured realities.

Very excited to be coming out of the word work and back on stage after the long winding road of making 'Fault Lines'. Erin will be performing solo at Huxley's Neue Welt and will be offering the first peek at some of the new songs. Supporting long time friends and collaborators Timbre Timbre. More live appearances to be announced soon.
We had a wonderful weekend in Martin Englert's countryside mastering studio and our very happy to say that we are through the echoey canyons and have reached the pinnacle of this album. Thank you Martin for rounding this experience off so nicely.
Fault Lines is finished. Time to celebrate.
Our version of ‘Spooky’ is an homage to the playful invisible hands that slam doors in the night and the voices that keep us awake during full moons. Drawing inspiration from Percy Sledge’s version from the 1960s, we were totally inspired by the amazing strings and super funky vibes!
Featuring Roger O'Donnell of The Cure on Fender Rhodes, Kristina Koropecki and John Corban on strings.
Enjoy!
While we were mixing 'Fault Lines' with the very talented Lasse Martin in Sweden, we realised that deep in the songs lay the very nuance of their ambience, and that it was a rare moment to hear those secret supporters on their own. So we decided to give these wisps their own little lives with these short test videos with footage from Berlin's natural history museum. A series of 5 here are the first 3.. more to come..
Tonight Erin makes her live Melodica debut, guest appearing with good friends Mark Berube. For all the Melodica lover's in Berlin.
It's Up! Finally the new site and new name. (Goodbye Feral & Stray, thank you for your stark meaning, shapely letters and connectivity of ampersand)
We have been wandering in a seemingly long silence but really, we have been making lots of sounds, working on a new album night and day and we are almost there. Last beats being programmed and last effected ooohs and ahhhs being recorded. It's In the mixing stages, it won't be long now.
