​”Working with Ian Anderson was an honour and an incredible experience. After he agreed to join us as a guest, I sent him demos of five songs so he could choose whichever he liked best. He picked ‘A Brighter Day’, which was also the song I thought would suit him best. My only request was for him to play the main theme alongside the other acoustic instruments. Beyond that, he had complete freedom. The very next day, his flute tracks arrived, full of melodic ideas and solos, each one better than the last. We kept everything. There was no need to edit any of his parts; it all fitted perfectly. The result was exactly what I’d imagined: a blend of Dirty Shirt and that unmistakable Jethro Tull sound, with Ian’s unique approach to the flute. But he still managed to surprise me. I hadn’t expected the flute to work so well over the heavy riffs in the final section, which is the most aggressive part of the song. Having Ian leave his musical mark on one of our songs means a great deal to me. What impressed me just as much was how open and inventive he remains as a musician. I can’t wait for everyone to hear it!”​ – Mihai
