In the interview, which discussed fighting his drug addictions, lockdown and upcoming album Notes on a Conditional Form, he said he was making music and hoping the other band members would join them over the summer.
Matty lives in west London but ended up in East Anglia as lockdown was introduced while he was holidaying in Suffolk with his girlfriend and they have since moved to a temporary Norfolk home, with Matty’s Instagram posts showing him surrounded by open fields.
