Or maybe music journalists stateside don't find this story newsworthy. Oh the humanity!
From nme.com
"Post-punk cult legends Robyn Hitchcock (The Soft Boys) and Andy Partridge (XTC) are working on a collaborative album together.The duo are currently recording songs together in Partridge’s shed in Swindon, reports Billboard.Hitchcock explained the reasons behind their collaboration, saying: “I think it’s good for me to be brought up against somebody else, another songwriter. I really think about how everything fits together.“[It’s] a self-generating project. I write the words on the train going up to Swindon and then, bang, we record it in his shed.”
odds of them going on tour: 1 million to one.
ReplyI wouldn't rule it out. Peter Buck toured with Hitchcock on the last album.
