EP time

A few snaps from our recording at Shambles Studio a while back.

Watch out for our brand new single 'Walk Away' out on 6th October - exciting times! x

Novelty mugs given to an unsuspecting tea drinker: it's what every studio needs...

Fashion Blogger Tea Party at Rokit HQ

A couple of weeks back, the lovely folk at Rokit HQ hosted an exclusive fashion blogger event at their warehouse and asked us Heels to play (naturally, we said yes).

Being the non-professional bloggers that we are we're a little behind on the post, but better late than never here are some of Al's pics from the day.

A big thank you to Rokit for a great day of music, dressing up, tea and cakes! xx

Al sampling some of Rokit's wares. He now refuses to wear a shirt if it isn't tan, suede and tasseled.

Time for soundcheck...

Tommy gets back in touch with his macho side.

Upcoming Heels gigs

Love Whitechapel more than Jack the Ripper? More partial to a freebie than a disgraced MP? Then you'll basically want to give these two free gigs a go...

Tomorrow @ Indo (event here)

Thurs 14th, exhibition launch

See you there!

First blog of the year: better late than never...

As usual, it's been a while since our last blog... but for good reason! (kind of...) Here's what we've been up to.

1. Sorting our new line-up

Joining us on drums is Al and his alter-ego 'La Brown', while on bass we've got Kevin 'the mutton chop' Lennon.

2. Organising Tom's CD's and finding definite contenders for 'world's most homoerotic CD cover' and 'best supporting sexual guitar face'.

3. Debuting our new night 'Rock 'n' Roll Basement', with music from us (obvs), our friends The Flying Rats, The Kandy Kane Kids (former DYH bassist Chris's new band) and MFC Chicken. Pics courtesy of Garlen Lo.

 Tommy hits the bottle to satisfy his 'saucy' addiction.

Farewell, Roland

Hi(gh) heels,

Long time no blog - we've mostly been writing some new tracks, moving house(s), and getting a new line-up sorted. Yep, sadly Roland the drum machine passed away in a freak accident while on his way to collect his Christmas tree. To cut a long story short, he tripped up on some smarties scattered in the street which sent him colliding into a drum shop, where he was mistook for dodgy stock and promptly thrown into their recycling chute where he was crushed and compressed into scrap metal. It's thought that he'll resurface as a kettle*. It's a shame because he really did want that Christmas tree. Anyway, we've now got a human on drums; his name is Al and he loves smarties....

In other news, we've just done a session and interview with Shoreditch Radio, a new online station which will be live very soon. We'll keep you posted on when you'll be able to listen to us on the show.

With a lack of photo evidence of any of the above (a picture of a kettle would be slightly insensitive to Roland, may he rest in peace) we thought we'd share some silly phone app pictures we lovingly made - always a good way to pass the time on the tube...

Enjoy!

♥ DYH ♥

Lucy as art. See how intently they stare.

Ah, yes, the time when Giselle wore nothing but polaroids of DYH. This made the front page of the Brazilian Weekly but sadly the British tabloids were too busy reporting about the twitter argument that Alan Sugar had with Kirstie Allsopp. It's not the first time Sugar's rained on our parade but we won't go into that**

DYH stamps. We can't think of a story for this one.

Nice one TFL

Dya take ss...sug.. no, it's too painful to mention the S word again

* Err yeah... that was clearly a lie... We just got bored of him

**Ok fine. If you must know, he turned down Roland at the last minute for junior Apprentice. Apparently there was an age dispute concerning Roland's date of manufacture and date of sale. Potato/Pot-arto Sugar, he was young enough at the time of entering, and you shattered his dream
