Third studio album by Graham Day & The Gaolers! Their first in 14 years! It's been a good time recently to be a fan of Graham Day. Last year saw the release of "A Little More Time With...", a 10" mini LP by The Senior Service, as well as his recent debut solo album, The Master Of None, (released on Acid Jazz). There's also been a string of hometown reformation gigs with the Prisoners, and a US tour with the Woggles. And now this! Damaged Goods asked Graham a few questions about the new Gaolers album_ Q: This is the third Graham Day & The Gaolers album. It's been 14 years since the last one, why the long gap? A: Blimey, is it that long? We never "finished" the band, but with Dan living in the USA it's always been difficult to get together, and we've had to rely on touring to make it worthwhile flying him over. I think we were all feeling a bit tired of touring, my 'day' job got increasingly intense, and we sort of put it on hold for a while. We were set to record the album in March 2020, but then Covid hit so we lost a couple of years. Q: How did you first hook up with Dan Electro from the Woggles? A: I met Dan in 2000, his band the Woggles were supporting the SolarFlares on two nights of a German tour. The first night they blew me away, and we went on first the following night, no way I was going to follow that again! We stayed in touch, became great friends. Dan was over in London 2006 ish, I'd just finished playing bass in the Buff Medways, and Dan suggested we start a band together with Buzz the Woggles bass player. I had an album's worth of material and they flew over and we recorded the first Gaolers' album in 2007. Q: One of my favourites on the album is 'Don't Hide Away'. What inspired the song? A: Covid divided a lot of people, everyone had their own views and different attitudes to risk. Don't hide away is about those friends and family that were so scared they locked themselves away, some of whom still have never returned to social circles. I just wanted to put it out there that there were alternative views to those being heavily pushed in the media. Q: There are plenty of other highlights - 'Step Out of Your Parade' and 'Filtered Face' are getting played loud on the office stereo! But which tracks are you most pleased with? A: I like the whole album as a body of work, I think it shows both the soulful and tuneful side of the Gaolers whilst staying really gritty and full of attitude. I'm particularly pleased with 'Don't Hide Away', 'Step Out of Your Parade', 'I Can't Stop This Feeling', 'Mystery Man' and 'Narrow Mind'.
