It Hugs Back are in session with us this evening.

They are on guitar and vocals Matthew Simms, on keys and vocals Jack Theedom, on bass Paul Michael and on drums William Blackaby.

The band formed when the lads were still at school. In 2009 the band released their first album 'Inside Your Guitar'. Matthew has since become the guitarist for highly influential art rock band WIRE, writing this record whilst on the road on their extensive world tour, Paul can regularly be spotted backing jazz greats at venues ranging from Ronnie Scotts to The Savoy while Jack has even become a chef.

In the summer of 2010, the band started to regroup more regularly in the space they like to call 'The Record Room' - a tiny spot in Matthew's garage overflowing with guitars and vinyl where they created new album Laughing Party which is released in May 2012.
