The Jam’s Paul Weller says he is very lucky to be “just another granddad” as he prepares to launch his new album.
The man nicknamed “The Modfather” says he is “always looking to develop what I do” ahead of the release of his latest record, Weller at The BBC Volume 2, which features live performances of his classic hits and interpretations of other artists’ songs.
The singer also heaped praise on Billie Eilish whose single What Was I Made For?, from the soundtrack of the 2023 Barbie film, is one of the tracks covered by Weller.
On the inspiration for the cover, he said: “I heard it so much around my house because my youngest daughter loves Billie. I really love that song.”
