Indie rocker Miles Kane is back with second album, Don't You Forget Who You Are - and has teamed up with some of his big-name mates on ther new record, such as Paul Weller and Ian Broudie.

The album sees Kane get back to business with a collection of no-nonsense, modern rock anthems tinged with a sense of the sixties in style and sound.

Ahead of the album's release on 3 June, we caught up with the Birkenhead star to discuss how he embraces his past, playing in small clubs across the UK - telling us that playing to small crowds is tougher than playing packed out stadiums.

He also reveals how his collaboration with Weller was rumoured in the press before anything was discussed, and why touring Colour Of The Trap taught him exactly what he wanted to do on Don't Forget Who You Are.
