Katie Melua has announced a special 20th anniversary reissue of her multi-platinum second album Piece by Piece, out 5th December.

The album has been remastered and expanded with a collection of bonus material including b-sides, live performances and previously unreleased demo recordings from Katie's own archive.

It's been a joy revisiting the archives with Katie for this roll-out, and we look forward to sharing more as the campaign unfolds in the coming months.

You can pre-order the double CD / LP now https://katiemelua.lnk.to/PBP20.

The first single from the reissue, 'I Cried For You (Demo)', is out today.

Much of our focus for Thom Yorke this year has been the rollout of his collaborative album with Mark Pritchard, the exceptional Tall Tales. Lead by the single Back In The Game, which was debuted on Thom's Everything tour in New Zealand last year, the album is accompanied by a rich visual world, created by Jonathan Zawada.

Another major project for Thom was Hamlet Hail to the Thief, which involved reconstructing the songs of Hail to the Thief for a dynamic new production of the Shakespeare classic.

Thom's latest release is the single Dialing In, which features as the theme for a new Apple TV series Smoke.

Back in February, we celebrated 30 years of PJ Harvey's incredible album To Bring You My Love. Shortly after, PJH took to the road to complete the I Inside the Old Year Dying tour, with shows across Australia and Japan.

Ever inventive, PJ Harvey's dress became a living record of the tour, each night marked with a drawing by a band member before stepping on stage. We worked with designer Todd Lynn to help tell the story of this extraordinary "drawing dress".

The cat is out of the bag: Radiohead return to stages across Europe later this year. Ticket registration is open until Sunday evening at https://radiohead.com/.

Rolling out the campaign has been quite enlivening, to say the least, including more than 40 separate comms channel actions happening more or less simultaneously.

Reflecting on some of our standout moments from 2024:

We were proud to support the release of Katie Melua's Live at the Royal Albert Hall, her third live album, recorded during a sold-out show at the iconic venue.

We managed campaign strategy, rollout, and ex*****on, spanning both the album launch and the accompanying limited edition screenprint, made from the original stage drapes used that night.

Reflecting on some of our standout moments from 2024:

We helped facilitate a quick sell-out for TIN MAN ART's limited print drop 'Two Moons' - a lithographic print made by Thom Yorke and Stanley Donwood, the original artwork for which became the cover for The Smile's third album Cutouts.

In a related project, we rolled out the launch of the Logical Absurdity exhibition, featuring tapestries and pictures made by Stanley Donwood and Thom Yorke.

Reflecting on some of our standout moments from 2024:

In May PJ Harvey's summer of European festivals and headline shows began with Primavera Sound in Barcelona, and went on to include her fifth appearance at Glastonbury, and her biggest headline show to date at Gunnersbury Park in London. This was followed by a 16-show run across North America.

Come October, we rolled out out pre-sales for tour dates in Australia and Japan, helping to boost her audience in those territories. The tour continues at Golden Plains festival in Victoria this weekend.

Our role encompasses managing the communications calendar before, during and after the tour dates, including pre-sale announcements and commercial strategy.
