BBC 6 Music playlisted band the Lovely Eggs in session tonight - Marc's a proud parent being a huge supporter of Holly and David over the years.

BBC 6 Music playlisted band The Lovely Eggs in session tonight - Marc's a proud parent being a huge supporter of Holly and David over the years. The band's new single Wiggy Giggy is taken from the new album This Is Egg Land (the band's 5th album).

It was produced in the US by Grammy Award winning producer Dave Fridmann (Mercury Rev, The Flaming Lips), after the band left a message on his answering machine on a whim asking to work with him - now that's what you call chutzpah.

They named themselves after a pigeon laid two eggs on an abandoned nest on the windowsill - when the eggs hatched they started the band - true story.

Marc and Rob Hughes also bring you Part 2 of the A to Z of Psychedelia M - it's all very interesting you know.
