Welcome back to The Struts Life, the only place where you can get the real scoop straight from the band, unfiltered and full of surprises.

This week, we’ve got a bit of a different vibe as Gethin takes us on a wild ride through the world of rumors and fan theories. Ever wondered if The Struts have been secretly cooking up a collab with U2? Or if that lost third album is gathering dust somewhere? Well, Gethin’s here to clear things up—or, in some cases, leave you hanging. You know how it goes, nothing’s ever that simple when you're in a band!

We also get some classic Struts stories from life on the road, like Gethin’s hilarious struggle with Oasis tickets and his infamous barefoot performances—yes, it’s true, the man just hates shoes! Plus, for all you conspiracy theorists out there, the real tea on that Måneskin collab and whether or not the band’s ever been tapped to write a James Bond theme. Spoiler alert: there’s no Bond theme yet. Stick around ‘til the end for some exclusive music recommendations straight from Gethin’s playlist, and don’t forget to join the chat on the official Strutter Facebook group. Got a rumor we didn’t cover?

Drop it there, and who knows—we might just tackle it in a future episode.
