Greetings Earthlings!
There's a bloody lot going on in the land of Lilygun at the moment that has been keeping me very busy...
First of all, on 28th August, limited addition CDs of our latest EP will be available to buy from all of our website's via PayPal.
Next month, on 26th September at the Underworld in Camden, will be the last show for Lilygun in this year and we'll be playing with a very special guest player which I'll leave you guessing about...
Discounted tickets are now available from us here:

After that gig, Lilygun will be recording an album which has been f*#kin' long overdue I know but so worth the wait I promise ;-)
I'll post details about this later...
I will also be recording with Aaron John and The Eden House which I'm very excited about as well as finishing a new classical CD I've been working on.
Thanks to all of the photographers that have sent me some amazing photos from The Eden House shows, they're great and I really appreciate it.

Until we meet again me lovelys... Anna-Christina x

New Conversations Single Review
I really like the verses on this single, with vocals from the Shirley Manson school of singing and some fine rhythmic riffing, the choruses are pretty powerful too – with hints of rock, goth & funk packing a meaty punch sonically…

[Subba Cultcha - February 2010]



Friday 13th August 2010

Catch Anna-Christina singing with The Eden House this Sunday at Dingwalls in Camden. Details are on the Gigs page here. Email the band at vwww.myspace.com/theedenhouseuk for the half price list.

Tuesday 10th August 2010
Revamped Lilygun website and the first Lilygun EP review has arrived...

Recorded at Britannia Row Studios, there is an element of the "psych" in here that said studio made famous through Pink Floyd's 'The Wall'. However, this EP produces a much more grunge-dominated sound.

Holly shit...

Guys I'm sooooooo bloody excited about this... Earlier on this year, Lilygun played a few support slots with them on their tour and not only are they a great band, they're also wonderful people that I get on very well with. It will be so cool to sing with the lovely Valenteen and Amandine Ferrari and I'll be joining them on their tour which includes 3 festivals, in London, Germany and Poland.
I'm madly excited... :)
But don't worry... I will be back with Lilygun in September with a show at the Underworld and Peace Of Mind, the single will be available to download very soon.

Sunday evening's gig was so special for us, big love to everyone who came out to see us play for the first time as a 3-piece.
Me and AJ actually got so nervous, it was really funny backstage but we really enjoyed it. It's a real challenge to play a set like that. In fact we had so much fun that we've decided to perform it once again, possibly in December. We'll get back to you on this...

Me and Piranha will be finishing off "My Ways" for the Launch Night on 27th November which we're so excited about.


Thanks again you guys, you're the best... Anna-Christina x
