The singer also opens up about his approach to songwriting

Paul Weller has said that he would like to work with Miles Kane in the future.

The punk veteran, who releases his 11th solo album 'Sonik Kicks' next month, has said he would like to collaborate with 'The Colour Of The Trap' singer, who he called "a talented lad".

Speaking to NME in a video which you can see by scrolling up to the top of the page and clicking, Weller responded to a question about how he would most like to work with by saying:

I'd like to do something with young Miles Kane. I think he's a talented lad and we could do something good together.

Weller also spoke about how he goes about writing songs and said he doesn't think his methods have ever changed.

Asked about this, he replied: "I don't think it's changed, I don't think it's ever been any different, it's still kind quite ad hoc. Sometimes I'll sit down and play a song straight off and sometimes I'll just have fragements of ideas which take time to process. I don't think it's changed too much."

'Sonik Kicks' comes out on March 26 and contains a total of 14 tracks. It also includes guest appearances from Noel Gallagher and Blur's Graham Coxon. You can hear a track from the album, which is titled 'Around The Lake', by visiting the singer's official website Paulweller.com.

i don't really know his solo stuff even if i saw him 2 years ago in a festival, but i didn't pay attention at him because i was eating :giggle:
but that's one of the great name in english music so it'd probably make something good if it'll happen

Really sorry if i've chocked you, it wasn't my intention...:)

but yeah, i'm sorry i've never listened Paul Weller, just like i've never listened a million of other interessant musicians i guess...But at least i know who he is (unlike a lot of my french compatriots :D i don't talk about people on this forum of course)

and yeah his show started when i was in the "village" of the festival, having a drink and eat with friends...that's why i've said that, i was not in front of the stage if you prefer...:)

I was just joking. But you should definetly have a listen to his solo stuff and also to the jam and style council. A collaboration with Miles would be amazing!
