John Mitchell has premiered his latest Lonely Robot video with Prog.
The Boy In The Radio features Peter Cox of Go West, who also appears in the promo.
The track appears on Lonely Robot debut album Please Come Home, launched earlier this year via InsideOut.
Mitchell says: “The Boy In The Radio is a fictional tale about an insular kid who only finds his true voice when he shifts into a greater dimension. A big thank you to Peter Cox for contributing his time and energy – and in doing so, making this boy’s dream a reality.”
He’s joined by Caroline Campbell, Lauren Storer and Craig Blundell for two live shows in December, at the Boerderij, Zoetermeer, Netherlands on December 4, and London’s Scala on December 20. He also appears at Touchstone’s farewell shows on November 20 and 21.
Meanwhile, Mitchell has confirmed he’s working on a second Lonely Robot album, saying it’s “shaping up to be another stellar adventure – but this time in the unknown world of the subconscious.”

Not only is one-time online news editor Martin an established rock journalist and drummer, but he’s also penned several books on music history, including SAHB Story: The Tale of the Sensational Alex Harvey Band, a band he once managed, and the best-selling Apollo Memories about the history of the legendary and infamous Glasgow Apollo. Martin has written for Classic Rock and Prog and at one time had written more articles for Louder than anyone else (we think he's second now). He’s appeared on TV and when not delving intro all things music, can be found travelling along the UK’s vast canal network.
