    Welcome to another Splash Story. This month Ben Steadman & Diamond Dave are joined by Kav Sandhu of Happy Monday's who joined Splash Stories from New York for a superb and heartfelt interview to talk about his Blitz Vega Band with the Smith's bass player Andy Rourke, his passing and plans to tour the album ‘Northern Gentleman’, which was released on what would have been Andy's birthday January 17 2024 . The single Love City was released in May 2023.

    Propelled by rattling beats, pulsating buzzsaw bass and the elegantly wasted rush of classic ‘70s NYC punk, ‘Love City’ surges towards a frenetic finale and shows that Andy Rourke kept on expanding his horizons and delivering essential new music until the very end. Kav's assertive vocals lead the charge, his lyrics exalting the excitement and opportunities that come with his time living in the heart of LA.

    Kav told Splash Stories "Love City is about experiencing your own individual journey but ultimately ending up in the same place / viewpoint as the people you meet along the way. You can look at it simply as the magic of a great night out where everything falls into place or a life journey which shapes the way you think. But hopefully it makes you smile a little, it’s a happy song.”

    Love City joins the previous singles Disconnected ,Strong forever, LA Vampire and Lost & Found in previewing the ‘Northern Gentleman’ album. Titled in honour of Andy - the 10-track record documents the duo’s time together: a record informed by their creative connection, their brotherhood and the spirit of pushing on in the face of overwhelming challenges (Andy's illness & Covid lockdown) and which features Johnny Marr contributing on guitar.
