So far, my shirts have been mostly picked out by musicians in what we like, these days, to call Americana music. Bennett Lewis is a young musician, originally from Florida, but now based between Athens, Georgia and Nashville who has been in that world too: he has played with both Lera Lynn and Honey Honey.

But when he contacted me on Christmas Eve to talk shirts, he was already playing lead guitar in the indie rock band of Montreal, and about to embark on a World Tour in support of their 12th studio album, Lousy with Sylvianbriar.

I was thrilled to think that a cool young musician over there in Georgia, USA, knew what I was doing. Even better, once the shirt was finished, I got to see of Montreal in Brighton and meet the very charming Bennett in person. Here are a few shots that http://www.andrewwilkey.co.uk/ took on the night:
