Noel catches up with founding member and keyboardist, Marcus Vere, of Living In A Box. The band's breakout hit, "Living In A Box," reached number five in the UK and number 17 on the Billboard Hot 100 back in 1987. Marcus discusses which came first, the band name or the song title. He also talks about whether or not the band name hurt them. Living In A Box released two albums and broke up in 1990. The song "Living In a Box'" found new life as it was featured in the video game, Grand Theft Auto V. In 2016, Living in a Box reformed with British soul singer Kenny Thomas replacing Richard Darbyshire. In 2022, they announced that they have a new singer, Bryan Chambers. Since they have reformed, the band has appeared at live festival events in the UK such as Let's Rock, Rewind and Flashback.
