New Tunes From John Grant!
Two new tracks from the forthcoming album, Love Is Magic are available to listen to on YouTube today. Touch & Go has great harmonies and that Carpenters sensitivity.

Self-Portrait – Ian Hunter – Mojo Magazine
I loved this little Q&A with Ian and particularly the fun element in which the last question was answered. He seems a very genuine and lovely man.
One Last Piece Of John Grant…
