Sing Statistics is the collaborative concern of designer
Jez Burrows and illustrator Lizzy Stewart, that manifests itself mostly as a small independent press.
We Are The Friction is their second publication. Their first,
I Am The Friction (2008), was a super limited and hand-bound book of 10 short stories (Jez) and 10 illustrations (Lizzy) and is entirely sold out. Besides publishing they've also worked on artwork with a variety of bands/record labels.
