We’ve been wanting to collaborate on something for a while now and a stripped down version of the new Flyte song ‘Tough Love’ sang with all of us together round Will’s window table seemed like a beautiful opportunity xx

He closed proceedings with the remainder of the Abbey Road medley- starting at Golden Slumbers and going right on through to ‘The End’. It was an immaculate way to end. If these shows truly are the finale of his live career, I think he’s smashed it. #PaulMcCartney

We’d decided we were going to do Fleet Foxes earlier that day and more importantly we needed a good natural reverb like back in the good old days of 2016 when we would sing together in car parks and tunnels etc. So we asked the audience during our show if anyone knew of a good...

He told that story about Hendrix covering Sgt. Pep two days after its release, made a funny about Clapton and then dove into ‘Getting Better’. Which was when my brain mushed a little, literally hand on heart singing every word with the man who wrote it standing three metres away

A new song for December. Just a guitar and our three voices this time. Will wrote this as a wee 14 year old boy but somehow it only made sense to release it now, at the end of this truly bizarre year. Love you all very much. They say we’re going to have some snow. And a vaccine.
