Hi Laura, just wanted to say that you were amazing at the Little Dragon gig at the Hi-Fi Club in Leeds the other night. Looking forward to seeing you again next year. Merry Xmas!
I saw you last night at the Tuesday Club. It was one of the best live performances i've ever seen there, quite simply brilliant! Are you planning to release any collaborative work with a DUB/HipHop artist? I was soo so impressed. Thanks for a brilliant night! (Breakestra were good too!) x
