Hello February!
We’ve been promising you a new duet since before Christmas. We’ve been promising ourselves we’d cover this song since before we met. So here it is, 10 years and 2 months late, the perfect moment for this gem of a song.
Pack Up Your Sorrows by Mimi & Richard Fariña — sung by JF & Lail on a rainy February night:
Meanwhile:
Jesca Hoop and I will be on BBC Radio 4’s Loose Ends on Feb 21st to talk about The Songs Of Joni Mitchell show we’re playing on International Women’s Day at The Queen Elizabeth Hall. We’ll be singing a couple of songs, revealing our special guests and I believe Southbank may be releasing some extra tickets for the occasion…
We’re also very excited to be playing Cambridge Folk Festival this summer, not only because Susanne Vega is on the bill. Many more 2026 shows to be announced soon.
Also other things I can’t yet talk about especially one involving television. The electronic device, not the band. Though I did once open for Television and somehow walked in on Tom Verlaine backstage in his boxer shorts but that is another story.
Over and out.

You’ve packed it!
