  1. The making of Infinity Inside

    EPISODE 1

    The making of Infinity Inside

    Jack’s brand new EP, Infinity Inside, was conceived on the side of a windy hill in the Yorkshire Dales. In this first episode of Arting About, Clare and Jack look back at how the idea first came about, and the layers that went into creating this delicious mille feuille of music, from a sketchy brief, through lyrics, composing, recording and producing, to the final mastering process.

  2. EPISODE 2

    The making of Raining Diamonds

    We blast off this celestial episode with some dodgy science about Saturn, before exploring a constellation of twinkly piano, slide guitar pitch bends and space-radio sound effects. Back down on earth, Jack shares a lesser-known Dolly Parton factoid and Clare makes her vocal debut as a recording artist. Listen to Infinity Inside Hosted on Acast.

  3. EPISODE 3

    The making of Feeling

    Jack takes a trip down south, and during a breakfast at The Ivy, confesses all to Clare. Together, they channel the cringe into some new lyrics, which, they write on the back of a placemat, hoping one day it will become a museum piece. Fans of 80s music will enjoy hearing about how Jack created a classic synth-pop vibe on this catchy, upbeat song. Listen to Infinity Inside Hosted on Acast.

  4. EPISODE 4

    The making of Solo

    Jack and Clare have a painfully honest conversation about loneliness, and bust some myths about what isolation and disconnection can look like. If you’ve ever yearned to meet the one and would like to hear what a guitar sounds like when it’s crying, this episode is dedicated to you with love. Listen to Infinity Inside Hosted on Acast.

  5. EPISODE 5

    The making of Renaissance

    Clare and Jack throw everything they’ve got at this final track on the EP as they experience their own personal Renaissancezez (that’s a word, right?). There are choirs of angels, celestial strings, reverse reverbs that suck you into a new realm, special effects make up, and some life or death surgery. It’s all ridiculously dramatic and OTT. Enjoy.
