Stuart Braithwaite: ‘Over the years, I’ve pretty much mastered the day off’ When not working, the @mogwaiband singer and guitarist tends to focus on vegan food and record shops. He shares what's on his mind - from 30% thoughts occupied by finding somewhere good to eat on the 'dreaded' day off - to a quarter of his mind devoted to his small dog Britney and their daily walks. Read the full piece at our link in bio. Artwork by: @almahaser

First published in 2022, Spaceships Over Glasgow is the memoir from a man who has spent the last three decades adventuring on the furthest frontiers of noise: @plasmatron of @mogwaiband We still love this design by Gordon Reid (@middleboop ), and the different colour ways for the limited special editions. Still available in paperback and audio if you haven’t read this one yet.
