And it's been an everlasting summer

Second update for today! We also found the McFly interview we've uploaded earlier today on the Drafted website.

MCFLY INTERVIEW – A DECADE IN MUSIC
Source: Drafted Magazine

HAVING ACHIEVED EVERYTHING YOU CAN POSSIBLY HOPE FOR WHEN YOU FIRST START A BAND, MCFLY ARE STILL REAPING THE REWARDS OF THE HARD WORK, PASSION AND DEDICATION THEY’VE INJECTED INTO THE GROUP SINCE DAY ONE. AS THEY PREPARE FOR THEIR TEN YEAR ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATIONS, DRAFTED’S KYLE GOODWIN CATCHES UP WITH THE FOUR-PIECE TO DISCUSS MEMORIES, LANDMARKS AND BROTHER-LIKE FRIENDSHIPS...

WORDS BY KYLE GOODWIN

A decade in any job is an impressive achievement. But in the modern music business, where popularity can be a passing ship in the night, 10 years is unachievable milestone for most. For McFly, the last 10 years has seen them shift 10million albums, pick up countless awards (including a Brit Award for Best Pop Act), sell out arena tours across the globe, and build themselves into something of an institution.

On a September afternoon, we find them sitting in the lustrous surroundings of Kensington Roof Gardens, encircled by flamingos (just how we roll here at Drafted), casually preparing for their own decade celebrations. In a few days’ time, they’ll be taking to the stage at the Royal Albert Hall – for four consecutive nights – to ring in their landmark birthday as a band. And today, Danny Jones, Tom Fletcher, Dougie Poynter and Harry Judd are as excited as they were back in year one. Their sixth full-length album is set for release in Spring next year, and all four of those RAH shows were resounding sell-outs.
