Thanks to those of you who sent in questions for us to answer in the new annual edition of our official magazine. We answered a bunch of them yesterday as well as being interviewed about what we’ve been up to in 2015, how the new album came about and much else. The magazine should be published in March and information about how to order your copy will be on this site when we have it. In the meantime, thanks for all your support and Happy Holidays! Neil x
We have additional information about the making of the “A man from the future” album.
