Details:
"Miss the Plane" is the debut album from the project Hollis and the Mighty McGregor. It was in a pub in Glasgow, Scotland that Hollis Webb met Andy McGregor. Both Andy and Hollis were students at the University of Glasgow. Hollis was abroad for a year and had stumbled upon a pub on Byres road that held a weekly open-mic night. Hollis decided one weekend to go and this is where he met Andrew McGregor. Andy worked in the pub and ran the open mic as well often playing songs between performers to fill in time. A friendship was formed after Hollis played a song about asking a girl out on a date by memorizing the 109 natural elements on the periodic table of elements.

Hollis had wanted for years to release another album (after his first album with his high school band, Tomorrow's Yesterday) but had neither the money, time, or resources needed to take on such a project. Andy, coincidentally enough had been working on a project studio. The two collaborated and after many late nights full of instant coffee, and numerous bags of fish and chips, the album was done.
