Hide AdA statement said the band wanted to present what they are doing to a domestic audience, with many of the songs being new, although some will be familiar.
Cocker seems to be billed as 'JARV' - the statement featured a lengthy list that proclaimed JARV was 'a way of looking at the world', 'a rave in a cave' and 'entirely implausible', among other things, concluding: "It’s probably best if you come along and see for yourself."
