Paul Weller Plays Exclusive Gig For The BBC!

With the end of the US tour and Paul taking a little break, we figured we would too. But we're back and looking forward to bringing you all the news, reviews, etc. as Paul finishes out the rest of the year with several tour stops and some new releases.

On Saturday evening Paul played a set at the BBC Television Studios recorded for a later broadcast. Highlights were guest appearances from Graham Coxon and Gem Archer as well as airings of songs from 22 Dreams not yet played live including Black River, Where'er Ye Go, and One Bright Star. There was also a string section and brass to accompany the band.

For an excellent review of the evening please stop by the blog of All Mod Cons.

I didn’t want to make As Is Now Part 2,” Weller tells Rock Daily. “There was this mentality where it was like, ‘Let’s try anything that comes into your mind.’” Weller sequestered himself in his country studio, recruited some famous Britpop friends like Oasis‘ Noel Gallagher and Blur’s Graham Coxon and spent hours improvising with his band.
