Elbow invited me to be the support act on their next tour.

Rather than perform on stage with my face to the audience, however, I would use Elbow’s new animation technology.

Throughout the tour, I sang and danced behind a huge dark blue plastic screen. Meanwhile my outline was transformed into a multi-coloured animated figure for the audience to enjoy. Everyone there was also saved of the embarrassment of watching a pensioner making her last bid for stardom.
