Don’t Shake Me

Moments are lost when I have you
Pains are soothed but not rubbed out
Foresight knew no bigger brother
You make me want to shout

But maybe then
Maybe then I’ll just sit back in my seat
Maybe then
Maybe then I’ll just sit back in my seat

Day to day
We fly away
Or lie beneath the golden rays

Twenteen, you're a has been, you're a sunken dream
Let me crash, let me crash
Don’t shake me, don’t shake me

Daydream maker mix one for me
That makes me think I’ve seen everything ever seen
It’ll satisfy me for a while
Might make me want to run a mile

Maybe then
Maybe then I’ll sit back in my seat
'Cause maybe then
Maybe then I’ll just sit back in my seat

Day to day
We fly away
Or lie beneath... (lay me down)
...the golden rays

Twenteen, you're a has been, a sunken dream
Let me crash, let me crash
Don’t shake me, don’t shake me

Crashing burning falling turning churning burning
Crashing burning falling burning

Clogged and charred and bored and drained
Seems such a burden to be enlightened
Foresight knew no bigger brother
I say I’m gonna be
Like no other

Maybe then
Maybe then I’ll just sit back in my seat
Maybe then
Maybe then I’ll just sit back in my seat

Let me crash, let me crash
Don’t shake me, don’t shake me
Let me crash, let me crash
Don’t shake me, don’t shake me
Let me crash, let me crash
Don’t shake me, don’t shake me
Let me crash, let me crash
Don’t shake me, don’t shake me

Don’t shake me, don’t shake me
Don’t shake me, don’t shake me
Don’t shake me, don’t shake me
Don’t shake me, don’t shake me

Rock ‘n’ Roll... Rock ‘n’ Roll...
It’s dead easy!
It’s dead easy!
Rock ‘n’ Roll... Rock ‘n’ Roll...
It’s dead easy!
It’s dead easy!

It’s dead easy!
It’s dead easy!
It’s dead easy!
It’s dead easy!

It’s dead easy! (It’s dead easy)
It’s dead easy! (It’s dead easy)
It’s dead easy! (It’s dead easy)
It’s dead easy! (It’s dead easy)

Wormhole - Don't Shake Me (2017 Remaster)

Ruins (Demo)

RELEASE DATE: FRIDAY 13th October 

A hop, skip and a jump down the rabbit hole into alternative singer-songwriter Phoebe Coco’s ecological EP to sing in the trees and dance on a moon-plane. 



‘Phoebe Coco has just the thing’
Tom Robinson- BBC 6 Music

Effortlessly compelling.
Adam Watson BBC Introducing Wales 


‘Feels like a dark fairytale…’
Sarah Gosling 
London artist and composer Phoebe Coco sets forth with a highly anticipated new EP release I Am Not a Machine this coming October the 13th, with a release show on the same date at Saint Pancras Old Church. 

Born in the rolling hills of The Bannue* and growing up in London, Phoebe Coco seeks living contradictions, the wilderness within the city; the forest within London’s walls. These themes are interwoven in her music, in lilting lyrics and layered landscapes of organic and electronic instrumentation, in a quest to marry the two worlds- the natural and the urban. 


Raised within a singing matriarchy of grandmothers, mothers and sisters, Phoebe Coco experienced live music from an early age. Songs were sung in all settings, from kitchen tables to bohemian parties. Now, on occasion, she invites her family on stage, who sing with her in ‘blood harmonies’- a phrase coined to describe the uncanny, specific and unusual sound of close relations singing together. These unique blood harmonies can be heard throughout the EP. 

As a community and ecological activist, environmental themes are at the foreground of I Am Not a Machine. Phoebe Coco’s writings and performances with trees have been aired by renowned nature author Robert Macfarlane on BBC 4’s Front Row. For the award-winning Urban Tree Festival, she created a project called Tree Song in which she composed, arranged and recorded a series of acapella, folk inspired songs to create a site-specific installation. Elements of this folk heritage are present in her single Machine: ‘ We are singing in a tree, connection fails, try again with your feet’. In an age of expansive development Phoebe Coco sought to “encourage us all to slow down, listen and reflect on how the old ways can meet the new.”


The EP was primarily recorded in Abbey Road and Tostada studios and was co-produced by Phoebe Coco and three times grammy award winning producer Eduardo De La Paz.
The music spans genres, in some places reminiscent of Bat for Lashes and other times Weyes Blood and Kate Bush. This translates live into a seven piece family band, featuring a selection of London's finest players in an amalgamation of complex vocal harmonies, rippling piano, soaring synthesisers, flute, saxophone, guitar and drums. Expect the full works from the full band on the Friday on the 13th October Launch Show. 

Nature also prevails in Phoebe Coco’s acclaimed debut album My White Horse & I (2020), which was championed by Tom Robinson and also achieved local, national and global radio play from BBC 6 Music, BBC Radio 4 and BBC Radio 2.  She has played stages far and wide, from Shambala Festival to Iceland Airwaves to Sofar Sounds and is well known on the London music scene, with recent shows including well-loved music venues The Old Blue Last, The Sebrite and Peckham Audio.

Jerry Sadowitz - The case for the prosecution

A recording of "dinks and donks," strange sounds created by friction inside of InSight's seismometer, called SEIS. Scientists aren't entirely sure what causes each of these sounds, by they are created by parts inside the seismometer contracting as they cool down, especially during sunset. These were recorded on just after sundown on July 16, 2019 (Sol 226).
