However things are not quite they seem for Athenoul- la Georgiou; her husband was a closet cross-dresser with post-war traumatic stress di- sorder, her daughter can ba- rely communicate and her ven- geful prodigal son flaunts a Turkish travelling circus perfor- mer (played by Starlight Expre- ss star Penni Tovey) in front of her in an effort to try and push the entire dysfunctional mess right over the edge.

Larkhall, singer songwriter duo and all round nice fellows. Beside a river. Across a ri- ver. Through the river, and back again. We are Sphooki. Retur- ning to our childhood haunt and love: Larkhall.
Come and let us share wi- th you songs that we wrote. For you. About you. About ti- mes that exist in all spaces, re- gardless of the when where what and why.
Songs from our hearts, ta- ken in parts, unspoken langua- ge of energy and art.
For we are Sphooki, and that is why - time doesn't exist although it can try.
Who are Sphooki? We haven't a clue, but they contac- ted us over twitter and they se- emed thoroughly nice. Anyone who goe's along, please upda- te us on how it went.
