“It's the best thing that's happened to Lee but also the worst. He wrote this perfect song, but it's meant he hasn’t had to do anything because he has a constant source of income”: The torturous - and ironic - story of There She Goes

English rock band The La's posed in Liverpool, England in 1990. Left to right: drummer Neil Mavers, guitarist and vocalist Lee Mavers, bassist John Power and guitarist Peter Camell.

There have been few bands that have been so widely written and speculated about that have such a thin back catalogue.

The La’s discography consists of just one album and four singles, the last of which was released over 35 years ago. And yet the fascination with them remains undimmed, largely due to the fact that their lead singer and songwriter Lee Mavers has released not a single note of new music since.
