This has been a very busy week! The single is out, we drove down to London to record a session for Q Music (Will do a piece on that when it’s broadcast) and then yesterday we headed back north and recorded this session which went out live on the lovely Caroline Boyd’s Drivetime show last night (24th Feb).
Here is the show and the three tracks we played cut out for you to download for free should you wish to! Enjoy:
The whole 20 minute interview with three live tracks and Listen Up! played from the CD:
To reward you lovely people who come to visit us on this site, we’re giving away free downloads of tracks from our back catalogue or remixes/ acoustic versions etc.
Last month we brought you Minnellium’s great remix of Glitterati which is still there for you to listen to but we’ve taken down the free download link. Instead, this month, your free track is Sunday Song from our last album Lo-Tech Solutions to Hi-Tech Problems. This spikey little tune is one of our favourites from that album and it’ll be here to be downloaded for free for a short while before I put the next one up! So have a listen on the player below and get it downloaded while you have chance! Cheers for visiting us! Comments always welcome . . .

Yesterday John and I went down to WFM early in the morning for another session on the Bigger Breakfast with Ray Degg. But when we got there, no Ray! Nobody! We’d thought it strange when driving there that it all seemed automatic, and so it was . . .
We waited for some time for someone to come – the station was being run by computer! So while we waited we decided to practice in the corridor outside, playing to the passing solicitors who work in the next office.
Eventually a nice old lady came by to drop off a letter and tried to help us. Once we’d explained the lack of Ray, she said she’d pray to St. Anthony for us – the patron saint of lost things . . .
Soon after Lizzie turned up – a very friendly 16 year old girl who had been a volunteer at the station and was just visiting – we went in the studio and waited some more until we asked Lizzie if she could run the desk in the empty ghost studio. She brightly said, “yes!” and for 45 minutes before her shift at Hampsons downstairs, into the studio we went for what turned out to be a very fun radio session. Station boss, the lovely Anne-Marie came down later and enjoyed what we were doing – Thanks!
A great big thanks to Lizzie and Anne Marie – this was a lot of fun! But where’s Ray?
Have a listen to the whole show here – I’ll cut out some of the live tracks and post them separately later. On here we play Sometimes, Travelling, Unravelling and Coasts live and Listen Up!, Lies Like These and Enemy are played from the CD. Oh and we talk rubbish . . . for ages! – we had fun, we hope you enjoy it too!
