Video: Shlomo with Imogen Heap at Glastonbury 2010
Here’s a video of my impromptu duet with the lovely Imogen Heap on the Other Stage at Glastonbury Festival 2010. I really enjoyed it, we had a lightning fast runthrough backstage while imogen was stressing about her hair and makeup… i felt a little underdressed in my sandals!!!
Metronome jam
Here’s some cross-rhythms for all the rhythm geeks… bought a new old-style metronome and initially thought it was broken, it kept going out of time. Turns out my table was wonky !
Dance Wossy (and Lloyd Grossman)!
This is a massive cringe to watch back!!! but it was a bit of fun – was terrified all day but really enjoyed myself once I finally knew who had won the poll….. ROCK ON!!

video: RFH security bust us for swearing during BOXED workshop
LOL. We’re now thinking of putting this in the show…. a security guard might come in mid-performance and shut the whole gig down due to complaints from next door!!!
Just to clarify, we weren’t calling the security guy a twat! It was part of a workshop exercise. Anyway we renamed it ‘arrogant cat’ after this incident
