The BandThe latest news from Mick is that the operations have all gone very well and he should hopefully be out of hospital by the end of the month. However, it's going to be a couple of months before he'll be able to walk.
The BooksAnd now for a commercial break... although one you may actually be interested in! Greg Allum, a photographer and close friend of Supergrass, spent time with the band in Berlin during the recording of their new album. Greg photographed both the band and Berlin itself and is now planning to publish a book showcasing these exclusive images. If you'd like more information on the book, check out Greg's
website or
myspace page.

The BandUnfortunately I have painful news to pass on - Mick has had a bit of an accident whilst on holiday in the South of France and has broken his back!
Following an operation on his back, the good news is that he's expected to make a full recovery, although clearly this is going to take a few months.
For more updates, check out the fancy new news section of
supergrass.com (which has been launched earlier than expected due to the above news).

Also, keep checking the site over the next week or two, as there will hopefully be a progress update on the new album!
