On 30 March, a new prog festival was born to the great delight of the audience who had gathered in Leicester, to celebrate one of prog fandom’s greats, Jackie Jarvis’ 60th birthday, hence its name: JJ60. One of the highlights of the line-up was Stuckfish, performing several songs from their brilliant album "Stuckfish IV" live for the first time. DPRP’s Béla Alabástrom and Mr F met lead guitarist and composer Ade Fisher and charismatic vocalist Phil Stuckey to talk about the band’s history and development, their creative process and a wide range of other subjects.
