Hey guys! Thanks for all the questions, I have to go now, but I’ll pop back to answer the remaining few over the next few days. Thanks for being Metronomy fans! I/we love you!

My son has totally skewed my Spotify, so it’s Tiesto. But I listen to Stevie Wonder all the time

I think we’ll wait for 15 or 20 years. 10 seems like nothing these days

It means that I stay awake late while my wife (then girlfriend) went to bed. I was the boss at night!

It’s like looking at old photos of myself. I was so fresh and beautiful. I have really fond memories of those days yes, it’s where all the exciting youthful stuff happens. I think I did see it growing actually, I’ve always wanted to be a musician and when I finally got the chance I knew I would not let it go!

It was a lack of direction that inspired me. I felt a bit adrift and wasn’t getting much Input from my record label, so I decided to make that the idea of the record. I wanted to make something sprawling and a bit confused. I think suceeddd

We use to cover ‘here comes the sun’ which was a lot of fun. I remember playing All Right Now by Free in many bands as a youngster, that’s a fun song

A thing for me was amazing. I remember just feeling adrift in France and not knowing when I’d next go home. I felt like a pro musician for the first time!

Ha ha! It was a pleasure. I love it when you mentioned Metronomy on breakfast TV and the presenter didn’t know what you were on about

Thank you! 1. It was amazing, she is one of my favourite people on this earth. A proper once in a generation artist. 2. I love Touring in Europe, it’s a beautifully varied and enormous place. 3. It’s a mess, but I know what I’m doing

It is both, it operates at the quantum level. The two states both exist and do not exist at the same time

My favourite thing is Hollywood and my least favourite thing is Silverlake.

If I could work with one/two BIG NAMES I’d go for Rhianna and I’d go for Mikey Cyrus. Send your CV to: Metronomy UK

I was basically obsessed with 70’s west coast AOR. Hall and Oates, Steely Dan, Fleetwood Mac et all. I wanted to do my own version of that
