Arctic Monkeys
Alex Turner's side project record is due to be released next year, it has been revealed.
The Arctic Monkey is working on an album with James Ford, from Simian Mobile Disco, among other musicians.
Ford told BBC 6 Music about its progress following a recording session in Paris: "It was amazing, really quick and we had fun, played ping pong, ate cheese and drank red wine."
Ford is playing drums, bass and some keyboards. He explained several other artists were contributing: "We're doing some strings with a guy called Final Fantasy who does a lot of the Arcade Fire strings.
"The stuff we were really listening to was like Scott Walker and I think there are some really great songs on there.
"We'll probably finish it off towards the end of the year and it'll probably be out next year. But I can still listen to it and enjoy it, which at this stage in the album-making process is rare."
