It is always with great excitement that we release a new Pete the Monkey session video. This time it’s a wonderful cover of Little Dragon arranged by Jack Durtnall for London Contemporary Voices. See below for your auricular enjoyment!

For three days a year a wonderful crew of people passionate about video, sound and music get together to setup a temporary studio at the Pete the Monkey Sessions. For the whole of the festival they stay in their magical den recording bands performing at the festival.
It’s particularly exciting for me as I have to get everything setup and sounding nice incredibly quickly in a tiny little space. With a curious and festive audience sneaking in and artists buzzing from the festival atmosphere, it is essential to stay calm and work efficiently. The first year I was involved (2014), we recorded something like 30 bands… the second year was less intense but incredibly hard-work nonetheless. However it alway pays off! More videos here.
