I'm not from London you know

Our first single comes out today. Of course I could (and I will) list some of the places where it's available:

iTunes
Wippit
Ditto music

As a bit of added value, what follows is something of how, when and where it was recorded.



This is Foel Studios in Wales, I don't know why I packed that tank-top. We were there for a week last summer before traveling to the Larmer Tree festival; a week during which we recorded Best Friends, had a 'moment' as the van teetered on the verge of a deep ravine and were henceforth rescued by the local farmer. Comparisons to Withnail & I were drawn and we laughed long and hard every time someone quoted a line from the film; "I'm not from London you know...", "Of course he's the f$%&king farmer, look at him!" and "we've come on holiday by mistake" were among the favourites.


The song is the first we recorded as a 3-piece. I played bass for this one and it turned out to be the last MüVs track to feature founding member Hollywood on guitar. Since then I took over on the axe and we continued to develop as a 3-piece to the point where we're now dead chuffed to be looking at a couple of deals for this year.

Really thanks a lot if you've already bought the single and nice one if you're just about to do so.
