Scottish indie legend Edwyn Collins is set to return to music with his first release since suffering a stroke in 2005.

The former Orange Juice singer has written I’m Feeling Lucky for the forthcoming album Mavis, inspired by soul singer Mavis Staples, and will be performing the track live on February 18 at the album’s London launch party.

Meanwhile, Ryan Jarman of The Cribs and Paul Cook of the Sex Pistols have been helping him out with a forthcoming solo album, due later this year.
