The new album from Luke Haines entitled Izzy Wizzy Let’s Get Bizzy focuses on the magic and magicians of British children’s TV of the 1960’s and ’70s and featuring 14 songs that conjure up everyone from Mama Cass to Tommy Cooper, and Graham Bond to Mick Robertson via Magic Shops and The Omen 2. It all started with Sooty and the dreaded words Izzy Wizzy Let’s Get Bizzy.

A wave of Sooty’s magic wand, cast a few spells and baby there ya go! Generations of children were introduced to magic, and as we all know, magic always leads to MAGICK. By the 1960’s and 70s ’magick was all over children’s television in the UK. Turn over to ITV - if you are allowed - Izzy Wizzy Shall Be The Whole Of The Law!

This newest solo album by British musician and singer-songwriter Luke Haines is being released on July 10th, 2026, and the 14-track project is a concept-driven record inspired by the TV-viewing youth of the man in questions.

The English musician, songwriter and author, who has recorded music under various names and with various bands, opens his new solo recording on the rhythmic hushed tones of Izzy Wizzy Let’s Get Bizzy and the gently melodic Mama Cass and then we get brought forth the slightly sterner fare of Death Card For The Kids, the reverb-hued, whispered static ambiance of Tommy Cooper - Chaos Magician, the foot-tapper Headchanger and then both the languishing, countrified Mum and the alt-rocker TV’s On All The Time.

Along next is the informative storytelling within The Omen 2 and the amiable The Standing Stones Of ITV and they are in turn backed seamlessly by the dutiful rocker Mick Robertson Says, the emotive Spiritualist Church at 7.30pm Every Other Wednesday, the affecting beauty of Graham Bond Turns On His Mellotron, the set rounding out on the psychedelic-imbibed Magic Shop, coming to a close on an .18 second reprise of Izzy Wizzy.
