We The Collective

The Levellers decided they wanted to do something a bit different with their back catalogue to kick off celebrations for their 30th anniversary year in 2018.

They brought in a string section and enlisted legendary producer John Leckie (Radiohead, The Stone Roses) to help develop new acoustic arrangements for eight of their previous singles including Liberty, Hope Street and One Way which they recorded straight to tape at the world-famous Abbey Road Studios.

They also recorded two brand new songs The Shame and Drug Bust McGee and the result is 10 track album We The Collective on the band’s own On The Fiddle Recordings label.

Lead singer Mark Chadwick says “The different musicians, producer and the studio combined to make something really special”.
