Marty, Roxanne, Kim and the Wildcats, all performed to iphones in their separate gardens, coming together in one spectacular video; a testament to the ingenuity and diversity of the Wilde clan.

Running Together’precedes Marty’s forthcoming epic new album of a vinyl-busting 15 tracks, all original pennings, written or co-written by Marty, performed by himself and the family.
