Quireboys singer Spike has been in the studio with Tyla - old friend and Dogs D'Amour frontman - recording an as yet untitled new album. The album features ten acoustic tracks from the pair, and is currently in the mixing stage. Release of the album will be in the next few months and will be accompanied by some live acoustic shows in November. More news and some artwork will follow soon!
