Great show this week with an 80’s rock feel to it purely by chance. Joined again by the indomitable Chris Smith we have music from Tankus the Henge – Luna Park, Kabuki – Ballet, Krooked Tongue – Freaky Love and an interview with Jack Scott Denton from Our Propaganda that I did earlier on in the day. It was a joy to catch up with Jack again and I play their new single Essential Love which is out now! All great music that you’ve never heard before from artists you should have done.

Is This Thing On Again 2008/2010
In a retrospective look at the music played on the podcast I feature some of the tunes I played in shows from 2008 to 2010. This is just a part one with more to come very soon. Some of these bands don’t exist any more and some of the artists don’t perform which is a massive shame but it goes to show that that you and yes I mean YOU, have to get out and support these people otherwise you could easily miss them. A massive shout out to all the folks that have bought me a coffee recently, I am reall...
