Originally released in 1992, The Chills’ third album Soft Bomb is often stated as their finest hour. In 2022, as their monumental record approaches its 30th Anniversary, The Chills will be heading to the US for a North American tour that sees them performing a three decade career spanning set. This milestone tour will see The Chills perform music from 1992-2022, it will also include music from their most recent album Scatterbrain which they’ll be touring in the US for the first time since its release. A conceptual classic that embraces styles and genres, Soft Bomb is an eclectic slow cooked musical stew, rich and rewarding from the much-loved storytelling songwriter Martin Phillipps. It features contributions from giants of contemporary American music including Van Dyke Parks and ex dB's Peter Holsapple as collaborators.

Reclaiming her universe, Jane Weaver returns with brand new single ‘Love In Constant Spectacle’, evoking spectacular images perhaps impossible to capture with the human eye, nor aperture. Taking measured steps that lead you to something very special, our protagonist pours all her creative resources before the needle drops. Secretly, this might be more conceptual in its execution, than initially meets the eye. “It’s about searching for joy, wanting to love and feel loved, then uncovering it in unusual places and in the smallest, hidden things in life. Magnified under rocks and stones, it explores connecting with nature and your surroundings as opposed to other people - focusing on autonomy, new beginnings and feeling bewitched” adds Jane Weaver. This is the poetic vision of one woman only, turning a new chapter, erecting a new scaffold, drawing empty landscapes as we slowly watch new colours, codes shapes and languages fill the frame. Produced by John Parish (PJ Harvey, Dry Cleaning), this is evidently a new awakening. Accompanied by a new video animated by Kamran Kaur she describes “The woman here is always moving forward in pursuit of something but constantly finding herself succumbing to nature's spell. Nature leads her back to herself, as that which she was searching for was there all along.” From a long-standing pillar of the UK’s independent pop landscape, this is Jane Weaver’s first single since her unanimously lorded top 40 album ‘Flock’ and one-off single ‘Oblique Fantasy’. “Genuinely different and exhilarating” ★★★★ The Guardian Jane Weaver continues to enrapture and expand her legacy into 2024 with a freshly announced tour… and more new music imminently.
