My old adana has been struggling to get a good print for quite a while now so it was time to take it to Caslon for a service. After a good look it was clear that this little press had been working very hard since the 1950’s and it was time for a rest. So many of the parts were worn and it was going to cost as much, if not more, to fix as getting a refurbished press. So thank you so much to Roy Caslon for my new refurbished adana 8 x 5 press. Its first job with eightfivepress was printing 100 sleeves for WINTER EP, music from my other project Red Deer Sleeping. The music is set to poems by Amy Lowell, Alfred Lord Tennyson, A. E Housman and John Clare.
WINTER by Red Deer Sleeping is now available to pre-order on Bandcamp. The EP will be released on the 15th January 2020.
