I'm so proud of the new album. It's the first time I've done anything that's all original and has not
    been from kind of the historical blues collection. I'm really enjoying playing that material out, and
                                                         I'm really enjoying playing with Olly on the fiddle.

                                                         BiTS:  You're able to get out and gig the album, do
                                                         tracks off it and that kind of thing, are you?

                                                         PPW:  Yes, we've been pretty much playing it in its
                                                         entirety,  live  at  most  of  our  kind  of  festival  type

                                                         shows.
                                                         BiTS:  And are you selling a few? I hope so.


                                                         PPW:  Yes, I've sold a few. CD sales aren't what they
                                                         were  even  five  years  ago,  unfortunately.  I  think
                                                         everybody's swapped over to streaming now, so it
                                                         used to be you'd sell 10 at a festival. Now maybe you
                                                         sell  two  or  three,  but  it's  doing  okay.  People  are
                                                         really enjoying it, and we're shifting a few, so yes,
                                                         it's great.

                                                         BiTS:  Good—Pete, I won't take any more of your
    time. Thank you very much indeed for talking to me.
