Following a recent high-profile per- formance supporting the Rolling Stones in Hyde Park and support- ing The Vaccines on their UK arena tour (in addition to support slots with Suede and Kasabian), neo- psych band Temples are embark- ing on a packed live schedule of festivals and a headline UK tour later this year, whilst working on their next album in between. Speaking to Music Week min-


utes before setting off Secret Garden Party, lead vocalist and gui- tarist James Bagshaw told the story of the band’s signing to Heavenly Recordings. “We loaded some songs online


almost exactly a year ago, like every other musician does really. We got a lot of messages from people straight away and next thing you know, we had a gig booked. “We met Jeff and Danny and all


the Heavenly lot and we just really clicked. We liked their ethos, it matched our attitude. Then they offered us a deal and there we go.” The group’s vinyl debut single


Shelter Song, released last September, was well received and has become somewhat of a collec- tors’ item, with recent copies sell- ing for well over £100 on eBay. Talking about their forthcoming LP,


HE SAID / SHE SAID “


Bagshaw revealed: “We've got about 12 to 13 songs that are basically there and then five or six we’re working on. We should have that wrapped up in the next couple of months. It’s set to be released, hopefully, in the first week of January.”


That’s in addition to an abundance of live dates in the months ahead, and they’re not just restricted to the UK, with Bagshaw revealing that America beckons


following the October and November dates. Reminiscing on one of his


favourite gigs, Bagshaw said: “I’ve got a soft spot for a little one we did in Southampton at Lennon’s - only a little place. They had this Psychedelia night. It was great; a really messy, small and intimate gig that was really hot and sweaty.”

TAKE A BOW TEAM QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE


I can’t believe I’m now getting ridiculous offers from major record deals all over the world for a David Brent album. Where were these people when I was trying to be a real popster? And starving?


Interest in The Office star David Brent has come after alter-ego Ricky Gervais released a number of songs as a series of comic shorts called Learn Guitar with David Brent via his YouTube channel.
