If Not Now Then When?
If Not Now Then When? is the debut solo studio album by English artist and record producer Ethan Johns. Inspired by the 22 minute opus of the same name by early 1990s Dublin band Spacepony UK (members of which later formed Future Kings Of Spain), it was released in November 2012 on vinyl and was scheduled to be released in other formats in February 2013, by his own Three Crows Music label.[3] The album was recorded in early 2012 and was engineered by Dominic Monks. If Not Now Then When? was mixed by Johns' father, audio engineer and record producer Glyn Johns, at Sunset Sound in Los Angeles.[4] The album features performances with Ryan Adams, Laura Marling and Danny Thompson. Johns will follow the vinyl release of the album with a full UK tour of independent record stores in November 2012.[5]
