Hello and I hope you like the songs. Things are good in the world of Delaplane. Plenty of gigs, radio stuff and reviews. The beard keeps growing although the hair on top keeps thinning. My loops still make me smile as do all the suggestions of names for my Euphonium from people at gigs.
Timothy X Atack sometimes comes to join me at gigs with his magic fingers on the piano and harmonium and magic voice. Yes, thats him down there on Postcards. I also have the pleasure of singing with him on 'Star and Garter, 3am' by 'The Heath Robinson'.
I've got 2 EPs now. 'Men Dressed as Titans' (which doesn't really represent what I do anymore but I still like it) and 'Mandibular Seetmeats' which is full of looping loveliness.
A highly recommended EP - The Fly
Described as a fascinating set and a superbly produced EP - Blues Matters
Hopefully there will be another EP very soon once I've worked out what colour to make the cover. I think it might be yellow.
In 2008 I collaborated with Henrik Dahle and Nathan @BeneathTheBed to write music for the play 'The Last Line'. I also wrote music for an Arts And Health video for Bristol City Council.
'He should be immortalised in Stained Glass Glass.' - Venue Magazine
'A butterfly circles overhead as vaguely ecclesiastical choral looping opens the wonderfully hirsute Delaplane's set of comfortingly morbid narratives made splendid with euphonium, guitar and glockenspiel' - Venue Magazine review of Ashton Court gig

Hi there hope your knee Op worked well and you're back out and about. I quit law and am working the odd shift at UCR again (was there 9 years ago before the whole legal aberration happened!!) so now I hardly ever go to TCA cos I have to pay to climb there!!! Give me a shout if you ever go to St Werburghs and we could try hitch up. I've done a copy of Cherrycompton for you (that compilation CD when I had my shoulder scan all those years ago). Am meant to be playing Battle of the Bands tomorrow at Canteen but gone down with toncillitis. Bad timing! Ah well. Hope your baby good x

Hello, Mr. Deleplane, how are youy? It's been nearly a year since I fell in love with your beautiful, beautiful songs, and I never did find out - which name did you pick?
MOST RAD NEWS ----------------------------- The awesome GANG GANG DANCE have re- scheduled the Bristol show. This will be one of two only headlining shows in the UK this year. The Bristol show will be the official warm-up for their show at Brixton Academy (supporting ANIMAL COLLECTIVE !) Wednesday 19th of August 2009 Qu Junktions & Glaive Concerts presents: GANG GANG DANCE + The Color of The Sun ~ Fleece ~ 12 St. Thomas Street Bristol BS1 6JJ 0117 945 0996 - 8PM - 12.00
Tickets 10 pounds in advance On sale at Bristol Ticket Shop, Here Shop and See Tickets. ------i-n-f-o-------------------- This gang gang from Brooklyn, have emerged from a very fertile, indigenous music scene in their neighbourhood but have branched out way WAY further with their hook ups and hooks. It is a ghetto world music that declines fey introspection but invites in disparate saturated sounds and bang bang dance dynamics. Their multi-faceted music style was first brought to our attention following a series of releases on forward-thinking label, The Social Registry; and subsequently, they have found a suitable home on Warp Records.
The bands assemblage of wonky techno, outer rock, faux arabesque and other strange, spiralling, sinuous music forms that transcend categorisation. Utterly unique and iconoclastic.
“The eclectism is exhilarating” Uncut
“Excellent… a psychotropid mind meld” – Plan B
“Gang Gang Dance may now ascend to the bona fide league of geniuses.” 8/10 – NME
