Merry CRAM Christmas & A Happy New Year

Very Merry Christmas & A Happy New Year!

It has been a very busy and exciting first year for CRAM, hence the very occasional mail out!

Most importantly a huge thanks for all interest in this project, in attending concerts, listening and of course to all performers and recording artists so far.

After the early releases last Winter/Spring of Compost & Transit Check, we followed up with two autumn launches and an exciting new collaboration.
