You can by it by clicking <a href="http://store.thisisapollo.com" target="_blank">here</a>, or on the picture above. I’ve already had a generous amount of pre-orders and purchases and I’m just totally overwhelmed by how it’s gone.</p> <p>I thank you, each and every one of you stunning goddesses, from the bottom of my brain.</p> <p><img src="http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzgqi2kk1p1r10jj7.gif"/><span> </span><img src="http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzgqi60nNA1r10jj7.gif"/><span> </span><img src="http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzgqiaH0Gm1r10jj7.gif"/><span> </span><img src="http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzgqidRg8Q1r10jj7.gif"/><span> </span><img src="http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzgqinz8YR1r10jj7.gif"/></p>http://blog.thisisapollo.com/post/50910672686http://blog.thisisapollo.com/post/50910672686Mon, 20 May 2013 16:19:58 +0100Jamie BrettphotographyApollomusicBrightonThundering WaterEP<p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://theninjasanctuary.tumblr.com/post/50861780534/a-no-frills-interview-with" target="_blank">theninjasanctuary</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><img alt="image" src="http://media.tumblr.com/041fcacda580c59b0ba0d17b455ca842/tumblr_inline_mn2j1jO3Bg1qz4rgp.jpg"/></p> <p><img alt="image" src="http://media.tumblr.com/06cb0583aee578ba982122f0e557310c/tumblr_inline_mn2j3maI201qz4rgp.jpg"/></p> <p><span>Before he takes us on what promises to be a lush adventure in avant-pop with his debut EP, </span><a href="http://store.thisisapollo.com/album/the-atlantis-experiment-ep" target="_blank">The Atlantis Experiment</a><span>, to be released on May 20th (i.e. today!), UK-based singer-songwriter Apollo was kind enough to discuss a number of relevant matters in perfectly business-like manner.

Hair routines, etc., can perhaps be elaborated on at another time. Also, there are plenty of links included for anyone keen on finding out more.

abandoned quarry and cement works, set off flares in a nature reserve, danced around gravestones and sat on a patch of protected bluebells. So you’d better appreciate and enjoy it.</p> <p>Like all my music videos, it was co-directed with and shot by my best friend and frequent artistic co-conspirator, <a href="http://jamiebrett.co.uk/" target="_blank">Jamie Brett,</a> without whose expertise it wouldn’t have been possible. My husband, <a href="http://whydontuloveme.co.uk/" target="_blank">John</a>, did my hair, styled me, spent many sweltering hours hotgluegunning and helped source props. My best friend Jenna was responsible for my transformative makeup.</p> <p>I hope you love and cherish this. <a href="http://store.thisisapollo.com/" target="_blank">And pre-order both the single and EP here.</a></p> <p>Love <span>꒰*ゝωꉺ꒱۶♡ *¨*•.¸</span></p> <div class="stream-item-footer">Apollo <div class="context"></div> </div>http://blog.thisisapollo.com/post/49615254816http://blog.thisisapollo.com/post/49615254816Sat, 04 May 2013 20:29:00 +0100musicmusic videopop<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/8a5c181261bbf37e21268a2281308153/tumblr_mm6txxUbtR1qcg7emo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>I got ash in my eye</p>http://blog.thisisapollo.com/post/49538160637http://blog.thisisapollo.com/post/49538160637Fri, 03 May 2013 22:30:16 +0100Apollo<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/d99e06971ddd9ae1e8a1326412cf778d/tumblr_mm6v5oxYzR1qzwi9oo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://faggot-interrupted.tumblr.com/post/49463948623" target="_blank">faggot-interrupted</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>super talented photographer extrodinaire <a href="http://jamiebrett.co.uk" target="_blank">Jamie</a> took these cute photos of my <a href="http://thisisapollo.com" target="_blank">boyfriend</a> and I being silly as we all finished a weekend of filming for the upcoming music video for his <a href="http://blog.thisisapollo.com/post/49295550648/as-promised-here-is-my-new-single-thundering" target="_blank">new single</a>.<br/><br/>(●⌒∇⌒●)</p> </blockquote> <p>I love you babe.</p>http://blog.thisisapollo.com/post/49468079079http://blog.thisisapollo.com/post/49468079079Thu, 02 May 2013 23:57:57 +0100<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/a9bb915acbd7a0bff62335365772efad/tumblr_mm6weeLmlA1qzwi9oo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://faggot-interrupted.tumblr.com/post/49463932183" target="_blank">faggot-interrupted</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>I went to visit my best friend in Margate the other day & uploaded some of the photos as a set entitled ‘dreamland’ (named after the amusement park there that I spent a lot of time at as a child) on my <a href="http://whydontuloveme.co.uk" target="_blank">website</a>.<br/><br/> You can have a look by either click that craftily hidden link or by using the click-through link on that photo-collage above.<br/><br/>（＾ω＾*）</p> </blockquote> <p>Check out my husband’s stunning photographs.</p>http://blog.thisisapollo.com/post/49468058741http://blog.thisisapollo.com/post/49468058741Thu, 02 May 2013 23:57:40 +0100<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/a817a906119877a18eb6bd2c152e74fe/tumblr_mm6tv98Vmr1qcg7emo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>I love my tattoos more than I hate myself</p>http://blog.thisisapollo.com/post/49462436961http://blog.thisisapollo.com/post/49462436961Thu, 02 May 2013 22:40:00 +0100Apollo
