Near the Westway

Earlier this year, Squid took part in an exciting and extraordinary live to vinyl recording challenge. In one take, the band recorded two new songs straight to lacquer for a two track EP titled ‘Near The Westway’, live and direct to vinyl at Metropolis Studios -and BBC 6 Music’s Steve Lamacq was there to listen in and play out on his show. A limited run of the EP was first available as part of Record Store Day Saturday and unsurprisingly sold out immediately. Squid then announced a further run of ‘Near The Westway’ available from 27th August via Warp Records.
