78: White Lies and Fear of Flying - Charles Cave on how a mystery Myspace page launched White Lies, and touring with Jamie T, The Maccabees and more as Fear of Flying during the 00s indie scene

This week on The Boys in the Band Podcast we chat to Charles Cave from Fear of Flying and White Lies. He tells us some great stories from the mid-00s when Fear of Flying supported the likes of Jamie T and The Maccabees on tour and reminisces about some classic London indie club nights.  Charles also shares the story of how that band evolved into White Lies - and how a mystery Myspace page helped launch them to big success, with the No1 album and huge tours which followed.  Plus, we get the latest from Charles on the band's upcoming sixth album, which is coming out at the start of 2022.  White Lies or Fear of Flying fan?
