WATCH the video for ‘SEBASTIAN’S GONE ON A RIDEALONG’, the second single from my new album, featuring Jacob Rees-Mogg in his first dramatic starring role as Sebastian. WARNING: This song features what the BBC call VERY strong language. Which means the C word. Share! x

If Matt Hancock thinks the media should get over something he did two years ago. He should try being the singer from an 1990s indie pop band promoting a solo album.

Watching Glastonbury on TV always makes me feel a bit weird. Envy that I’m not playing, relief I don’t have to, the feeling I could have done better than whoever, wishing I was as good as them, life slipping away, age, the good old days, time wasted, flags...

I was at an anti vivisection charity thing once, where me and Benjamin Zephaniah both received awards. He was great with my daughter who was about 6 years old. He chatted to her and went and looked for interesting things in a garden pond with her. I just wanted to share that.

David Essex, Thunderbirds, The Monkees. Bowie. We sampled Bowie on 30 Something as well. Years after it came out someone at his publishers noticed it and legal action was started. Bowie put a stop to the legal action. What a dude.

While everyone's angrily shouting at each other from their own positions of absolute certainty, there are a lot of us, terrified of saying the wrong thing and so end up saying nothing. Even this tweet feels like too controversial an opinion to be sharing.

Carter wouldn't be Carter without Brixton Academy. As a lifelong Lambeth council resident I’m not sure they’re the people who can do anything about saving it but definitely worth a shot.

My manager sells merch for me, Carter and a few other bands. He’s been on tour with one of those bands. Every night when the venue ask for their t-shirt % he challenges & questions it. Often this leads to him not having to pay it. Even the people running the venues don’t like it
