OMD founder Andy McCluskey discusses  a new biography on the band.

Andy McCluskey (from OMD), Wendy & Peter Pan (Christmas Show), Colonel Mustard & the Dijon 5, and Starry Skies in session.

GRANT STOTT talks to OMD founder Andy McCluskey about ORCHESTRAL MANOEUVRES IN THE DARK - PRETENDING TO SEE THE FUTURE -  a brand new biography which will take readers on a journey from their Merseyside beginnings (via their debut single `Electricity’)  into the ‘80s and beyond - covering their  string of Top 40 hits including `Enola Gay', `Souvenir', and `Joan of Arc'. 

He also has LIVE music and conversation with, Glasgow group STARRY SKIES - showcasing songs from BE KIND - their second album of pop Americana, rollicking garage rock and tender balladry. 

Scottish filmmaker May Miles Thomas will be on hand too: to discuss winning the BIFA Discovery Award for her film VOYAGEUSE: starring SIAN PHILLIPS, it’s based on the remarkable life of her mother-in-law Erica Thomas,  a Hungarian immigrant who fled the Nazis.  She died in 2004 leaving behind family photos, films, documents and objects dating back over a hundred years. They revealed experiences her children knew nothing about.

He’ll also have a special report on WENDY & PETER PAN: adapted by Ella Hickson, from the book by J.M. Barrie and directed Eleanor Rhode, it’s a chance to experience a world of dastardly pirates, feisty fairies and raucous lost boys - its on at The Lyceum this Christmas!

All that and the wonderful Colonel Mustard & The Dijon 5 - discussing their new Xmas single 'We're All Gonna Have A Wonderful Xmas Time And We're All Gonna Pay It Off Next Year' !! (Their song 'Ginger Girl is also being used in the Ron Pearlman/Richard Dreyfus movie Asher)

And they have a Big Barras Bash planned on Sat 22nd December!
