   About afterspark

''all the Joni Mitchell meets Radiohead comparisons, whilst understandable, don't actually do justice to Afterspark's craft. Cate Ferris's evocative word paintings demand attention in their own right; add to that their imaginative atmospherics, compelling harmonic ideas and the fact that it's all delivered with haunting, goose bumps on the neck, vocals...well... it all serves to create something truly extraordinary. Frankly, this is magnificent stuff''
Red FM
"This spark is definitely in the ascendent"
Brighton Source Magazine
"[Cate's] crystalline voice is sweet, clear and heartfelt in every syllable uttered"

Hello there!!!

Hows it going these days?

I hope all is well and good and I just wanted to let you know I've just put up a new track called ECHO so I thought you might want to have a listen. :o)
It's just the instrumental version I did not long ago but I do have a full section of vocal to arrange into this track so I'll keep you posted on the outcome! :o)

I appreciate your time and support and any comments posted.

All the very best, take care.

Hi Afterspark,

Just letting you know that we played "Whirling" on BBC Radio Bristol Introducing this Sunday morning just gone. Sorry we couldn’t let you know earlier but you can still hear it anytime this week using the on line "Listen Again" feature on the BBC i-Player, there’s a link to it from our profile.

Happy Dynamic Living!
