These days, you play with The Skids [Stuart Adamson’s other band]; what’s that like?

Just fantastic! Again, that’s about honoring Stuart. It came up to the 30th anniversary, and Richard Jobson asked if I’d like to help with a gig. Normally, when Big Country or The Skids play, we play Dunfermline. We thought we should play a couple of gigs around the 30th anniversary, so we also did a slot at T in the Park. Then it got to a point where Richard said he’d like to do some writing again, so that led to Burning Cities. There’s another offshoot from that where it’s Jamie, Richard, and I doing an acoustic thing. He does some of his songs, I do some of mine and Richard tells stories. Sometimes these go on for two hours! Jamie and I have also recorded with Thomas Kercheval. We kind of did this isolation thing last year, because he’s in America and Jamie and I are in Scotland. I like to feel like we’re all in the same shared space, but a lot of artists file stuff over the internet these days. We called the album Men of Steel and ourselves WKW.
