30: Tokyo Police Club - Graham Wright on huge festival shows, almost leaving their biggest hit off the album, and appearing on Desperate Housewives

On this week's show we're joined by Tokyo Police Club's Graham Wright to talk about the Canadian band's journey from Ontario to touring the world - and how they ended up on Desperate Housewives!   Graham also lifts the lid on what it's like being wined and dined by record companies trying to sign your band, tells some great stories from life on the road, and reveals how they almost left stellar tune Your English is Good off their breakout album Elephant Shell.
