Sapfofest is a queer summer festival that takes place at the Žeimiai manor house near Janova in Lithuania. We recently travelled to play a concert on Saturday night. Sapfofest is the first independent community-initiated festival in the Baltics, which seeks to empower & connect the queer community. It was a long trip for us and 16 month old GG – however it was really worth it for the beautiful and friendly festival and tbh our gig rocked and we were buzzing afterwards!

Here are two short videos taken from social media of the songs “I Do Everything” (from our album Stop Talking) and “Under The Neon” (vinyl single). I Do Everything has been a live favourite, maybe it’s time for a music video…

The start of our song “I Do Everything” from #sapfofest, from Aušra K! Such a cool and fun crowd ???

Shout out to Sam Dale for babysitting GG so we could practice in our brand new practice space!

Sam Dale, troubadour, busker, guitarist, frontman and singer extraordinaire – and now, babysitter! Sam has been looking after GG so we can practice for our gig in Lithuania next week – thanks Sam!

We would love to tell you more about our FLTQI (women, lesbian, trans, inter and queer) centred practice space and collective which opened this year. Until then, a short description from the Ruby Tuesday website:

A new practice room collective in the rooms below Bei Ruth, Neukölln. FLTI* centred. Organised in a non-hierarchical manner and financially accessible. A shared space for workshops, practicing, learning from each other, having fun and making art and music; a place for sharing resources and skills.

? these two though ? we didn’t have a babysitter today but decided to go and do a quiet practice anyway. It went pretty well considering GG wanted to ? sing into the mic ? play my synth while I was playing it ? breastfeed ? climb on the drum kit ? now our songs are in pretty good shape for playing #sapfofest in #vilnius, #lithuania on Saturday
