Update 21.2.03

Speaking to Designer Magazine, Ainsile Henderson has discussed working with Mark and Saul:

"It's f**king amazing. They were one of my favourite bands and they're still one of my favourite bands and the three of us are still writing together for my album. It took me a couple of days to get over the F**K factor and stop asking them about how they wrote "Sit Down" and where were you when you recorded "Made" (sic) and stop asking all these silly questions. But they're brilliant and it's great working with them because it's made me feel like I'm in a band again."
