Niall Breslin, lead vocalist for The Blizzards, says, "To be involved with the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy phenomenon is such an honour for us as a band. We have been massive fans for years and are delighted the Hitchhikers tradition is being continued by such an amazingly creative writer like Eoin Colfer. The quirkiness and oddities so prevalent in Hitchhikers and Eoin's style, have a symmetry with The Blizzards' sound. When I finally hunted author Eoin Colfer down to get the lowdown on what actually happens in the book, our parallel universes connected on an artistic level and we even drafted him in to play percussion on a spaceage china tea set."
Ireland's multi-platinum selling band The Blizzards will release the Hitchhiker inspired single from their second album Domino Effect which will debut in the UK on October 12.
Penguin Books will publish And Another Thing...,the sixth book in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series by author Eoin Colfer, on October 12 to mark the 30th anniversary of the first publication.
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy started life as a radio series in 1978 and subsequently became five best-selling novels written by the late Douglas Adams, the first being published in paperback by Pan Books on 12th October 1979.
