Gabby Young and Other Animals are back with a new album! Here's an acoustic version of one of the slow numbers , but come along to the launch on Wednesday 13th June for a fun-filled, energetic, action packed gig! There'll be playing all the tracks off the new album with a stage full of performers, Gabberdashery goodies and even a vintage photobooth.
We're not one to blow our own trumpet, but then again-what are trumpets for? So here's a link to the lovely folk at Elle magazine who've included us in their round-up of the best London blogs. Bless 'em. Here's what they say:
Absolute genius. If the lyrics and the video themselves weren't priceless, you get double funs by then reading the hatey comments from..oh yeah..the people the song is about. It's just the gift that keeps on giving. I especially love the talking heads with some of our favourite comedians talking about the worst troll comments they've received- Josie Long's ' This c*nt should be raped in the eyes' is a classic.
Huge kudos to Isabel Fay- as some of the comments say- She has won the internet.Fact.
