2013 - A message about Stuart Meads: We are sorry to report that we have some very sad news. Our dear friend and bandmate Stuart Meads tragically died in an accident last week. It has been utterly heartbreaking for both of us. This picture was taken during the recording sessions for our new album, which took place in a little Welsh cottage in May last year. We had an absolutely amazing time there. We feel lucky that we completed the mixes of this, together as a band, just last month. Please do feel free to contact us via our Facebook page or on Twitter. We'd love to hear any memories you have of Stuart and the band. Ol and Paul x
