The third album will be another collaboration, this time with former Cocteau Twin, Robin Guthrie. The album will be on Metamatic and will be distributed by Universal. Released on the 4th of May, it will be entitled "Mirrorball".
Foxx and Guthrie combined???! That is likely to sound like Heaven! I can’t wait….
Indeed! Glad to be the bearer of glad tidings. How’s the snow in Brighton?
We have a lot of it but life goes on because we all walk to work! :o)
I find it difficult to pigeonhole artists when it comes to style but I’m guessing this would fall into the category of electronic music, electronica or some such….
