00:00Good morning, my name is Phil Hewitt, Group Arts Editor at Sussex Newspapers, and goodness,

00:06it's not every day you get to speak to the Lord of the Lobsters. Apparently the lobsters

00:11spoke, asked you to become their Lord. It's an honour, you have accepted, you are Lakido,

00:16Lord of the Lobsters, and you are playing St Leonard's. Now tell me, what does it mean

00:21to be Lord of the Lobsters? What are your duties?

00:25Spreading the lobster love, singing, songwriting, producing, bringing joy to people, and I'd

00:31love to come and see you all at the Piper, upstairs at the Piper in St Leonard's, spreading

00:36the lobster love. It's going to be so lobster-licious, show me your claws.

00:40What is lobster love then?

00:43Common experience. As the Guardians say, it's inexplicably brilliant, and they gave it five

00:48out of five stars, so I can't argue with that.

00:50That sounds intriguing, because you don't automatically think of lobsters as lovable,

00:54perhaps I'm doing them a great disservice.

00:58Common experience, common experience, Lakido, Lord of the Lobsters. Yeah, common experience,

01:05it's beautiful, it really is.

01:07Fantastic, and you've got an album coming out.

01:10Yeah, the album is called Lobsterliciously, and it's coming out exclusively on Bandcamp

01:15on the 20th, no, the gig is on the 24th of October this month, so it's a week away, and

01:23the album is coming out on the 18th of November, 2024, exclusively on Bandcamp.

01:28Fantastic.

01:29The Lord of the Lobsters, Bandcamp, and you'll find me, or go to my website, lakido.com,

01:35L-E-K-I.

01:36Well, lovely to speak to the Lord of the Lobsters, good luck with the album, and I hope the gig

01:40in St Leonard's is brilliant, as you said, St Leonard's is honestly the place to be.

01:45Thanks.
