"He was coming to watch me when I was just 17 and I’d be spending the last few numbers on my back rolling round on the floor. "I used to go round to his flat all the time, but if I needed the loo he'd tell me to go to the pub over the road," laughs Micky. He could regularly sell-out Ronnie Scott’s in Broad Street and in London and was once big mates with Lawrence from Felt, another highly rated Birmingham talent who didn't quite make the big time. Originally from Aston but now living "a simple life in social housing", Micky's debut album Little Symphonies for the Kids was voted album of the year by the Birmingham Mail, beating off competition form Blur, Oasis and REM. "My eldest, Theo (14), can't watch me, but Gene (five) has a lovely voice and Dexter (four) likes to jump on a drum kit and he had a go with my partner Kate’s cello." "I'm in a different place, my writing has become a lot simpler and now I might just play two chords and throw my head back. "I believe that a little bit of what you fancy is good for you.

"I could have ended up on my own in LA and taken a lot of money but I didn't want to leave the rest of the band behind," he says. Yet Micky ended up feeling disillusioned in the end – as the sole songwriter able to churn songs out fully formed, he was being told to sack various members. John was a great fun guy to work with and made us all feel really comfortable and at home which is so important in the studio." "I remember the first couple of hours at Abbey Road was very much a museum visit but I knew I couldn't waste the session sightseeing," says Micky. The Abbey Road experience saw the band recording for Parlophone Records with the legendary producer John Leckie, who also worked with Radiohead, The Verve, The Stone Roses, John Lennon, and Pink Floyd. "I think they there will be more shows in the future judging by the reaction." "The gig will be a reformation, rather than a one-off reunion, and we’ll take it from there. Micky says: "The interest has been phenomenal. After just three nights of rehearsals, they'll be jumping back in at the deep end with a dozen songs in the course of a gig that should last an hour or more.
