New release in preparation : An EP of songs is
nearly finished. We are hoping for a pre-release edition
in time for the Edinburgh Fringe. There are also plans
to release a live album.
Stewart Lee : Nick joined Stewart Lee on his BBC2
Comedy Vehicle for a couple of songs and a 'red button
extra' www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/
The 6 part series has just been released on DVD and is
now available from Amazon, HMV and Play.com websites.
At the recent Stewart Lee curated 'Austerity Binge' at
London's South Bank Centre, Nick guested with Stewart
at a sold out Royal Festival Hall, and played solo at
the QEH, later joining Incredible String Band legend Mike
Heron, and The Trembling Bells. Stewart has listed Nick's
'Afterplanesman' as one of his '13 albums of all time'
