2 new stories from Hayley today, from LA. I am thinking Crissy refers to Pokarekare Ana as the P song (from the P album)! One is another pic with Victoria Lemmus, and the second is a video (screenshot below) of houses along a street. I went to Victoria’s Instagram page...I thought there were pics of Hayley on a balcony but they were of someone else.

You're quite right, Joe.
I can't spell it and was too lazy to look it up.
On the basis this is the song that took Hayley round the world (her words - read them somewhere), I thought members would get what I meant right away.

There is a red ring on Hayley's Instagram avatar but I can't get it to open a story.
same on chris_gaelan ?
must be a red ring around the moon, I think everyone has one all of a sudden.

Nothing shows up for Hayley for me, but Chris has a story showing Hayley sitting facing away, in what appears to be a studio. There’s the name Steephouse, but I can’t come up with any studios by that name.

There’s the name Steephouse, but I can’t come up with any studios by that name. For me, Instagram was offline most of the day. I see now it is up...and everyone I follow has a pink new Story indicator but it's a technical issue (thanks Comet). I finally got Chris' story to appear and here it is... looks like a home mixing studio.

Hayley's chair reminds me of the type used in my old Sunday school classes or even the old kind they used in school (before the connected desk/chair came along). LOL

New story photo from Hayley on Instagram, posted at about 4.00 pm LA time on the 20th. I hope the caption is tongue-in-cheek.
Mind you, if she's been drinking too much of that liquidized grass clippings, maybe not!

My take is that she hasn’t been so happy in a long time that she hardly recognizes herself. Maybe, I don’t know. 🤷♀️ She clearly loves California, since she loves hot weather. And now it’s probably easier to get to and from New Zealand, so maybe she’ll go back more often. Probably won’t live in London much anymore.

Puppy alert! New story featuring a little white doggy. I wonder whose it is?? Also, she started following someone who goes by andybaldwin77. He has no posts any more recent than last August (same time I was in England, I immediately thought). So because of that, I decided to see if he had a Twitter page, and he does. Check out his latest tweet, from Wednesday. Makes no sense to me, but Hayley and Chris, anyone?? Sounds like he was involved in some music mixing for Hayley's album. Anyone understand the language? LOL Also, check out the pictures below vs. Chris' story. He appears to be the guy in Chris' story yesterday, hat and hair being the strongest giveaways, even if his photo below was taken a couple years ago... Umm, do we have another song title?! http://www.instagram.com/p/BVHqjhsFsDn Also, going by his other studio pics, this is definitely him and the studio. His website (www.rolapola.com) says he's a mixer, producer, and engineer in New York, Brooklyn, to be specific. I saw the name Black Rock Forest as a location in some of his instagram photos, and I found something by that name in the Hudson River Valley, so that's NY, but not Brooklyn...? Then I found a German beer garden called Black Forest, so that's not it, also it's not a music studio, but it's in Brooklyn... Oh and, I also found a Black Rock Forest in Orange Co., CA, but the website clearly says NY. Unless, he moved to CA and just still has the same set up? And Hayley's first story from today was clearly in LA. But the photos on his website (one seen below) show the same lamp thing that is in Hayley's photo. So was she in New York, and now back in LA? Unless, again, he moved to California, meaning Hayley was still in CA. But then, Chris has ties to NY...... my sleuthing has produced some very confusing results. LOL I have gotten myself all mixed up! But not by a mixing desk! Or is it? I'm going completely crazy now! Or what if he moved to the Hudson Valley... never mind, my mind is spinning. LOL But at least from all this, you can see I have the right guy!!! Oh, and the only thing that comes up for Steephouse or Steep house is a restaurant in Louisiana, either that, or Google switches it to steakhouse. LOL

Good sleuthing Libby.
I agree it's difficult to pin down what these latest goings-on are from what you've found.
H could have gone to NY. Maybe that's why she's been "off-air" for a few days.
Ref London, sadly, I don't think she'll come back to live there. When she was with Universal Records, had most of her music industry connections in the UK, and had her personal life centred on Europe, it made sense to live there. It is abundantly clear that the epicentre of her professional and personal life is now in LA, so I reckon that's where she'll stay. It also makes more sense, as Libby says, for travel back and forth to NZ. I reckon she's sold her home in London. Remember the packing-up photos?
Going back to the Andy Baldwin 77 person, methinks yet another music mixer-come-technical "Johnny", but still no music. I've lost track of how many mixers we'ver seen involved, but he's No. 3 at the very least. What on earth is going on? I'm beginning to develop "Libby-itis"!

Well she obviously recorded most if not all of the album in New Zealand, and some stuff was done in LA. So I at least think the recording is done... Yet, did anyone notice the potential song title in Andy’s tweet? After the Rain? That immediately made me think of her recent rainbow photo. I have to wonder if that was a last minute song. Also, remember they were doing some sort of mixing at the beach house? And now this. But why go all the way to New York when there must be mixers in LA (aren’t some of the guys at barefoot mixers)? Even if Andy was in LA, why not just continue at barefoot? Did anyone understand the mixing language in the tweet? Lol
PS I never had trouble with Instagram yesterday. 🤷♀️

Hi Libby “After the Rain” would be a fab song title! I hope the lyrics would mirror a stormy downpour with the emergence of a rainbow with life’s downs and ups. It is possible that further mixing was needed. “More Fx at start” in Andy’s post could indicate the need for sound effects like thunder and rain! Of course, after the rain comes greener lands! May I ask, Libby, if you use Instagram website or the app? Maybe I will see how Instagram is on my Android phone....I use the app there.

I use the app on my iPhone, once in a while on my computer.
