E465: Mystery Jets: Making A Hole To See The Sky Through

Blaine Harrison, lead singer of UK indie rock band Mystery Jets, discusses the making of the band’s seventh studio album, A Hole To See The Sky Through. Named after Yoko Ono’s minimalist art piece of the same name, the album features the original artwork on its cover, following special permission from Ono herself. Harrison explains why Ono’s work made such a lasting impression on him, and reflects on how Mystery Jets’ songwriting has evolved over the years. He also looks back at the band’s approach to touring, and how life on the road has changed since they first started out more than 20 years ago.
