The plan is a “we scratch your back, you scratch ours” – so if we cover your song, cove rours! We’re hopeful Mr Burrows’ll get on this!
John and Adam recorded this one on Valentines Day. Max unfortunately being stuck working like a chump.

We have lots and lots of bands we love in our local area and some of these we’ve been in. Or been in a band with someone who’s in that band. Or been in band with someone who’s been in a band with someone who’s been in that band…With this in mind, and to stave off my upcoming breakdown, I’ve made a map of all these (which is nowhere near al- inclusive…). Enjoy!
