Judy is working really hard to make this happen but sometimes needs a nap and that's ok.

It's ok. Hold onto my hand we'll find it again.

you're lava in the shape of a girl I saw you cruise down that mountain side flames rising from the windows of the police station as you pass Jayne Mansfield singing just too hot to handle too hot to touch or can we touch you're too hot to handle you're lava in the shape of a girl softening and scorching making new land you're islands rising out of the boiling sea salt and steam we could touch i could melt in those arms those reaching arms or blister and sizzle my soft bits charred do you want to hear a secret i am lava too lava in the shape of a girl. Islands in the steam baby islands in the steam that is what we are

It's running at 140 the person behind you breathing down your neck. there are dumb kisses snagged on your collar. everyone can see them and read them like a nursery rhyme language. you don't care to know the fantasies of your fellow passengers. the person undressing you with their eyes can keep their discoveries to themselves. you're not interested in whats under your clothes. that's why you got dressed. Come on baby find that easy way out you're so close reach in your pocket find that key and run like the fucking wind No stops left. this is it. only joking, we can keep going. this is a circle line. a ring. nah it's a spiral, and we're not stopping. onwards and onwards, until we drive this cute little star into that black hole. you know the one. you know it all too well.

about

Here is my new EP, titled "judy is working really hard to make this happen but sometimes needs a nap and that’s ok."

It has three original songs and one cover
1. Being quietly gay because these rocks are witch-finders under a sleeping hex
2. Lava in the Shape of a Girl
3. Lilith (Faith Eliott cover)
4. Confronted by Desire not Truth

You can buy Faith's incredible album here:

These recordings are some of the first vocal recordings I have made since starting hormones. Feminizing hormones tend not to affect a voice that has gone through a masculinising (or cursed) puberty. These songs mark an effort to relocate myself within my voice. Mostly spoken, they are a first step.

The cover depicts the medal given to the Cowardly Lion in the 1939 film The Wizard of Oz.

It's released under the name Ignatz Höch & Hannah Mouse. I took the name Ignatz Höch in 2006 as an amalgam of dadaist hero Hannah Höch and the cartoon mouse Ignatz from the comic strip Krazy Kat. Now the inversion exists in combination with the original.

Thanks so much to Eclat Crew. This EP wouldn't be what it is without their support. www.eclatcrew.com

Much LOVE
Judy
