Feature interview #1632 in an ongoing series. To celebrate our Band of the Year visiting the UK for a run of live dates – and releasing their Band of the Year album – I met Italian champs Violet Blend for in London for a tourism special. After English breakfast, a black cab tour and a visit of Fabriccio’s new London ice cream shop, we headed to Oxford Street and a visit to the iconic HMV record store. We were joined by Archduke Wayne, dear friend of the band and GMS. Thanks to the store manager for letting us do an interview piece record shopping with the band. At a time when it’s so important to support physical music in the high street, this piece presents a group of individuals as music fans browsing their records, comparing what each person likes, pulling each other’s legs a little and generally having some well-natured fun. Fun – as music shopping should be.
Part two of a series of three Violet Blend interviews going up to enjoy over the next few weeks.
