Data Insight
DJ Locksmith joins the writing here and is on all fourteen tracks, which makes this the first album where the full four-piece writes everything. As on the debut, no song belongs to the band alone: every one of the fourteen carries its guest.
We the Generation came out in October 2015 and gave the band a second UK number one album. Fourteen tracks in just over an hour, with Ed Sheeran, Anne-Marie, Foy Vance, MNEK and Will Heard among the singers.
