Beth Jeans Houghton & The Hooves Of Destiny - Yours Truly, Cellophane Nose

NME“Every other second demands a double-take...” It’s not perfect. It’s not even close, but, like its title, ‘Yours Truly, Cellophane Nose’ has an intimate, unusual charm that’s all its own...

Guardian“Straight up gorgeousness...” This debut LP is lit up by an imagination as huge and outlandish as her onstage wigs and it makes for songs that bloom...

Clash Music“A firecracker to contend with...” She may not take life too seriously, but when it comes to making divine music, Beth means business...
