  • Matty and George from The 1975 share how their summer hit 'Part Of The Band' blossomed from an 'E Street Band'-style demo to the cello-adorned lead single from their latest album. Find out how Jack Antanoff helped turn the song on its head, and how Matty's bridge for an unreleased Benjamin Francis Leftwich song made its way into 'Part Of The Band's’ chorus.

    I'd honestly never heard any of their stuff until I watched them on the Big Weekend this week, and although I liked one song (Love It When We Made It), I'm feeling a little like they might be worth putting time into "getting". And the fact they produce themselves (and do it so well) is another reason to like them.
