2013 debut album from this musical project consisting of Tim Nor wind of OK Go and Drea Smith of the Chicago electro-pop duo He Say/She Say.

As Pyramids, both musicians are stepping outside of their respective comfort zones for an album of dark, soulful Rock.

2024 . Recalibrating her singular journey in the British musical landscape with her most open-hearted, direct and intimate collection of material yet. Love In Constant Spectacle evokes spectacular imagery and distills the artists' vision in it's purest form, elevating her inimitable sound and poetic vision to new heights. Recapturing the melancholy of her early work whilst propelling it forward, she sketches scenes as we watch new colours, shapes and languages emerge and fill the frame. Love In Constant Spectacle sees her take measured steps towards a vivid, dreamlike record, that offers resolve in the face of life's inevitability. The foundations of Weaver's sound are still evident - rich motorik drums, pulsating bass, custom modded synths and exotic fuzz pedals - but the stream is awash with scrabble piece poetry and Letraset lullabies leading to rich escapism, the free abandon that you'd associate with free jazz and the avant-garde. But, as determined and visionary as Weaver might be, Love In Constant Spectacle wasn't executed without assistance. Here we find a long mooted unison with Jane's first ever producer, John Parish (PJ Harvey, Aldous Harding), who has shared Weaver's process in the surrounds of Rockfield Studios and Geoff Barrow's Invada studio. Love In Constant Spectacle is otherworldly, it is both intimate yet distant, a surrealist interpretation of the foundations that make us human - the stories and landscapes it paints are habitats of their own. A voyage into undisclosed pastures, it's a heartfelt manifesto from an artist that continues to boundlessly evolve with each chapter in her career. InchAn artist at the top of her gameInch NPR.

In the madrigal-strewn world of neo folk-psychedelia, the queen of drones holds court... In this late teen decade, as green men are burnt, resources dwindle and naturalists plunder for authentic Englishness, the hunt for the grail-like Silver Globe continues. Back in 2014, the story was first whispered; A mythical jaunt set to a motorik rhythm, played out in an overgrown forest of ideas Jane Weaver's 'The Silver Globe' was a conceptual delicacy - Incha synth-ridden post-apocalyptic prog-pop opus based on tightly embroidered, non-linear recurring themes inspired by esoteric stories, cosmic imagery and re-filtered past experiencesInch. Since those heady beginnings, our heroine has time travelled to darker times and been celebrated for her glorious 'Modern Kosmology' (top album of 2017, here, there, everywhere). InchAn album that melds cult cornerstones into a lean and thrillingly addictive slice of unearthly popInch trumpeted The Guardian.. Featuring tracks co-produced by David Holmes, guest appearances by Australian vintage space-rockers Cybotron, a recycled chunk of a Hawkwind track, an intricate Damon Gough guitar solo, some Suzanne Ciani waves and post production, plus remix flourishes by Andy Votel, 'The Silver Globe' is a shiny beautifully polished gem. Now reissued in a limited-edition clear vinyl run with the existing artwork updated by Andy Votel, it is also being made available on CD in a card wallet so that this creative milestone can again be heard whatever your new age/old wave preference. It is Incha full-scale leap into the cosmic void of contemporary space rockInch according to Quietus. InchAs a child of the 1970's I can thank my friends' brothers for their space rock record collections and concept album sleeves that I would spend hours looking at, then my first love for Kate Bush followed by a heavy dose of disco and synth pop.
