Thomas Krane with a K
For the past few weeks I’ve been singing along to the songs from the lads and lady of Thomas Krane.
A new addition to the Durban music scene, they’re a soulful bunch with lots of gritty guitar layered over pretty acoustic pickings. Just when you think singer and guitarist Daniel Hampton is all poetic croonings, he’ll casually let out a scream before crashing into a jangling chorus. It’s very effective - even the bored looking barmen looked up with intrigue. At their gig at Market last month, Mary-Anne, sister and back-up songstress to Dan, proceeded to scribble up a drawing on an overhead projector between chiming in on the choruses. I’ll be darned if I know exactly what it was that she drew but it was a treat to watch her bust out a felt tip Marker mid-gig. What makes these guys even more of a joy to watch is the fact that they’re just so modestly unassuming. All I want to know is, when is the album coming and where can I get it? In the meantime, find them on Facebook where you can listen to a collection of their lovely songs.
And remember, it’s Krane with a K.

Looks I'd like to nick
I love to browse lookbook.nu for a bit of wardrobe inspiration.
Could I pull off a big flower hair accessory? I'm not certain.
Will I attempt to nonetheless?
Most probably if I can find one.

Good Intentions
I have these in bucketloads. My shiny, new blog will soon be filled with all sorts of lovely things! Ok, so my previous attempts at blogging were shortlived but I can explain to my three loyal readers.
One day, I just decided that I didn't like the look of the old blog anymore. Nor the name. And well, the HTML was simply downright dodgy. So I scrumpled it up and gave it the toss and now I'm much happier here in my new space! It is rather empty at the moment (and not much of an A-Z ) so I'm going to post some of my faves from the old spot.
If you fancy something you see or would like to share something lovely with Glossary, please post a comment or drop us a mail.
Happy browsing!
