Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds today unveiled the Robert Smith remix of 'Pretty Boy'. The Cure frontman has taken the driving urgency of the original and transported it into a gloriously spangled, spaced out new dimension, complete with scattered drums and a soaring guitar solo.
Speaking of his remix, Robert Smith says "I was surprised and delighted when Noel asked me to remix this gorgeous song, and I had a lot of fun slowing it down and spacing it out - Cure drummer Jason Cooper gave me a great vibey drum track to play along with - and the rest just phased into place under the starry sky of my distant moon..."

Blues-rocker Clay Melton recently released a new single called "Alive On A Wire" and to celebrate we asked him to tell us about the track. Here is the story:
We wrote "Alive on a Wire" as a band when we were coming off summer tour in 2022 with the Blue Stones and Des Rocs. The tour was one of those nonstop whirlwinds but in the best kind of ways.
Between shows every night, the long hours after the show is over and waking up to drive what sometimes would be a long haul the following morning can be both extremely exciting and draining all at once. The high energy and good times from the shows are paired with highways and parking lots during the 'in-between-hours'; which can sometimes leave you in a peculiar kind of head space, like being stretched thin but enjoying it regardless. I personally love being on the road and touring. Besides the fact that I feel like live performance gives me most rewarding pay off musically and inspirationally, it also comes along with the chance to see new places and meet new people which are things that always provides inspiration and brings variety and excitement to life on the road.
