Interview with Nick Jackson of IT

On last Sunday's International Prog Rock Show Rick and I had the pleasure of speaking with Nick Jackson of IT. To hear the story behind the band, and to hear great music, this radio show is a must have! By the way, Nick and his bandmates will be playing at The Peel opening for The Tangent (another great band) on Saturday 13th of November (That's next Saturday, so run, don't walk, to get tickets).

On a side note: During the interview, Nick was really embarrassed that some names escaped him when asked who he worked with in his new studio. He sent me the following note:
Hi Frank,

The name of the band was Reef. Kenwyn House is the guitarist whom I've been working with in his new project The Bliss. Can't believe that one slipped my mind! lol.
Cheers,
Nick.
