What We’ve Been Listening To: The Attendant – Goodbye 21st Century

The last live thing we did in the days before gigs stopped was to sing with Pete Astor (The Loft, The Weather Prophets). Pete had arranged for a dozen or so friends to sing a cover version of one of their favourite songs. (We did Jackson, with apologies to June Carter and Johnny Cash.) The gig was to promote Petes new album You Made Me. Anyway, since then, he has produced two singles as The Attendant. Its spoken word, with an excellent soundtrack. It feels like Pete has been on a parallel course to us creating new pop music, but also experimenting in the place where poetry and music meet. – Rob
