Sticking sounds together since summer 2023. 

‘Phellotape’ comprises two Manchester musicians, vocalist and double bassist Alice Phelps and multi-instrumentalist producer Thomas ‘Twem’ Twemlow, who met whilst playing for queer alt-rock band, The Irrepressibles. 

The duo draws on a wide range of sonic influences such as Massive Attack, Zero 7 and Feist. Tracks are sometimes intricately woven with harp, piano and dreamy harmonies around Alice’s warm and intimate vocals, other times they are heavy with layered synths and Twem’s driving electric guitar. Alice’s lyrics explore the complexities of love, desire and living with loss with a nod to the song writing styles of Carole King and James Taylor.

British comedian Adam Buxton talks with interesting people. The rambly conversations are sometimes funny, sometimes more serious with funny bits. Adam records the intros and outros for most episodes while walking with his dog friend Rosie in the East Anglian countryside where he lives with his wife and three children. 

Adam has appeared in films such as ‘Hot Fuzz’, ‘Stardust’ and ‘Son Of Rambow’ as well as a variety of TV shows in the UK. Since 2007 he has hosted ‘BUG’, a live show that combines music videos and comedy that became a TV series on Sky Atlantic in 2012. From time to time he also does live shows featuring just his own material. Along with lifelong friend Joe Cornish he also is one half of award winning TV, radio and podcast duo Adam & Joe who have worked together since 1995. 

You can find many of the insanely catchy jingles Adam makes for the podcast as well as amazing bonus material, beautiful merchandise and a selection of his incredibly funny and brilliant YouTube videos on the free Adam Buxton app.
