HELLO THERE! I hope you are all well and ready for summer. The last month has been WONDERFULLY full on. The Songs And Stories Tour is up and running. It’s a huge success. Last year I saw a lot of artists do this kind of show in many different...

Hello There! It’s been so crazy busy I forgot to write my blog but forgive me, I am totally absorbed with the new album.  Last week I spent four days dealing with tech issues then I realised we are “Mercury in retrograde”. I have to say things not...

Hello There! Happy February! This month I start the writing process for a potential new album under the working title of SECRET WORLD. I say potential because in this day and age it might be more exciting and more immediate to release a track...

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL! I hope your Christmas season was fantastic. By the time I stopped working on the 23 December I was so ready to have downtime. Robert and I had a fantastic Christmas at home, just loving being in our space and catching up...

Happy Christmas to you all!  I wish December to be everything you need it to be in your life . For me this season is the whole reason I work seven days a week throughout the year so I can reward myself without guilt and have quiet time with Robert,...

HELLO THERE! HAPPY PRE-CHRISTMAS. It has been a mind blowing six weeks. The Adam Ant Tour has done so much good in my life,  it’s lifted my spirits and given me a lot of inner self-belief, especially after the pretty brutal experience of Strictly....

Hello there, Thank you EVERYONE for the amazing support for Chameleon. It has been a very special and exciting time. The world I inhabit is surrounded by my work 24/7, no surprises there, when I walk on stage I am used to people knowing my work or...

Hello there! The last few weeks have been incredibly special. Last week I found myself at the BBC with Noel Fielding, we go back to 2014 when we made the movie AAAAAAAAAH! together. I only had a days notice for this job and when I arrived I was...

Hello there I wish you all an absolutely brilliant May. I have my 67th birthday and 39th wedding anniversary coming up and of course there is Robert’s birthday too.  So far 2025 has proved to be quite a tricky year but astrologists say come 26 May...

HELLO THERE! As I write two swans are snoozing on the river bank opposite. They will be nesting soon. A tree surgeon arrives tomorrow to carve a storm fallen tree into a squid, so it looks like it’s about to dive into the Mill pond. The building is...

HELLO THERE! I hope you are all fabulous and geared up for the first leaves of spring. Everything is hotting up for an absolutely brilliant 2025. In February I managed to catch up with lifelong friends, cooking lunch for my childhood friend Derek...

HELLO THERE! I hope you are all well. This new month I am feeling ready for the year ahead. Psychologically getting Febuary over is a huge leap forward. Seasonal light, or lack of it affects me. I found myself resorting to carrying a high powered...

HELLO THERE! May went too quickly! I love the long daylight hours, once April arrives my aim is to be awake through all the daylight available, then  21st  June is the pinnacle of my year. To see the dawn arrive around 3.30am and the twilight fade...

Hello There! I hope you are all OK. So many friends have come forward to express how hard April was, as if the air pressure was intense, holding us down under the grey sky, keeping a deep cold in our bones but we all seemed to have turned a corner,...

HELLO THERE! I am kind of glad that February is behind me. There have been many great things this month, especially in the world of music. One being Rihanna at the Super Bowl, which was sheer joy and spine tinglingly dangerous too! Fripp and I now...

HELLO THERE! The next two months are going to be amazing! This month there are three TOYAH AT HOME ANTHEM SPECIALS. There is so much to talk about, so much unearthed new footage and unheard recordings that we made the decision that the whole month...

HELLO THERE! I hope you are all managing to enjoy the summer. I see another heatwave is on its way in 7 days. For me the past four weeks have been about Press/ TV and dealing with the HEAT. I never thought I’d say this but I am starting to find...
