SHORT INTERVIEW: COPPERWORM
A band who got in touch, we then played and then the rock fans took things to the next level: The way it should be. My first interview with the band and, judging by audience reaction, I have a feeling it will be the first of a run in 2019. A band to discover. Have […]
SHORT INTERVIEW: LETHBRIDGE OWEN – ALBUM LAUNCH
A short interview, first aired in April 2019, to mark the launch of the band’s fine debut album.

SHORT INTERVIEW: MATT MITCHELL – THE RETURN
Colour of Noise was a band we covered heavily during 2016 through four hour-special interviews in just 15 months, including an on location hour for their Christmas gig, which proved to be their last.

SHORT INTERVIEW: THE OUTLAW ORCHESTRA – 2019 NEW HORIZONS
A band whose story I’ve followed since 2016. During this early 2019 catch up we hear about the band’s bright plans for the year ahead – a year of new horizons, new dreams and new ambitions. I have a feeling 2019 could be the outlaw orchestra’s year.

SHORT INTERVIEW: MASSIVE WAGONS – 2018 IN REVIEW
Backstage interview with Barry and Adam from London’s O2 Academy – looking back with the benefit of hindsight on a landmark year for Massive Wagons. ‘Full Nelson’ crashed into the mainstream Official Album Chart at Number 16 in the summer of 2018 – an event that gave a generation of other young bands a reason […]
