The single, which features Paul Weller on backing vocals, will be available as a free download for a limited time on Steve’s own site; www.stevecradock.com. then be available on Feb 14th with the b-side “Dressed In Flowers”. “Last Days Of The Old World” will also feature in upcoming Brit-film “Strawberry Fields” due for release in 2011.

Having penned some of the 90’s definitive hits such as The Riverboat Song, The Day We Caught The Train and Hundred Mile High City which have become engrained into British Culture as the theme tune to the Chris Evans fronted TFI Friday and signature song in Guy Ritches ‘Lock Sock and Two Smoking Barrels’, Steve is now seen as a great British songsmith, axeman and true modern day musical talent.
