...are James Skelly, Ian Skelly, Lee Southall, Paul Duffy & Nick Power. They're a psychedelic-folk-rock band from Hoylake, England. This is just a fansite, not the band themselves I always credit photos and sources whenever I can, but this is not always possible, so if you spot something uncredited and it's your work please drop me a message so I can add the source. Many thanks.

Do you find the Coral fan base getting on ‘Cut from a Star’?

Yeah, the response to the album and the support from The Coral fans has been great.

Do the lads from The Coral enjoy this different direction too, playing these songs live?

Yeah we love playing live together. We are starting up a band called Serpent Power, which is the name of the band backing me live. We are starting work on a new record so we are writing for that at the moment. James is also bringing out a solo album which he’s just finished recording and mixing it so I’ll be drumming for him this summer.

James Skelly & The Intenders have announced details of the debut album Love Undercover, released via Skeleton Key Records on Monday June 3rd 2013.

Produced by James & Ian Skelly and featuring all of The Coral, members of The Sundowners & Tramp Attack the album was recorded in the autumn of 2012 at Parr Street Studios in Liverpool.

James explains more about the band "The name is about letting people know it's not just me and an acoustic guitar," Skelly says. "I had the songs, but it became a proper group thing very quickly with everyone involved having a big input. It's that Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band, Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers idea."

Do It Again is the first taster of Love Undercover and available now as a free download via the official website – jamesskellyandtheintenders.com
