Gruff Rhys reveals the band have collaborated with the BBC Concert Orchestra.
Welsh indie group the Super Furry Animals have revealed their next album will be an instrumental offering, with collaborations featuring members of the BBC Concert Orchestra.
Frontman Gruff Rhys told BBC 6 Music the band have spent the last two years recording instrumental material and the task they now face is to condense the 24 hours worth of songs they have accumulated so far.
He added the group have been continuing their focus on melodic music and taken it a step further with some of the collaborations they have done.
"We did a session with [the] BBC Concert Orchestra but with core members of it, six or seven musicians helping to develop ideas that we can use and adapt to a larger orchestra in future," Rhys told the news provider.
Meanwhile, Rhys recently told Walesonline.co.uk one of his most treasured possessions is an old copy of the Western Mail newspaper.
The edition is from 2002 and documents Wales' historic 2-1 victory over Italy in a football match.
