    I’m of some advanced years, so I don’t know all of the bands - but that’s an education. I love the format, and ethos!

  • Amazing podcast for musicians

    Giles is a fantastic interviewer. The conversations are flowing and he easily brings them back to the theme of the podcast. As a musician it’s so valuable to hear everyone’s perspectives and still be entertained and inspired. We often listen to the episodes on tour and discuss after. Keep it up!

    A fantastic and original idea for a podcast.

    Attended the second session with Joe Talbot of Idles and it was set in the fabulous setting of Signature Brew. A very enjoyable listen and a thoroughly enjoyable evening.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Slow Pulp - "I just want to write music all day"
Q: What's like the dream? What's like the Slow Pulp dream for you guys? Is it like, keep making music? Like keep making killer records, keep touring, be able to pay rent?
Emily Massey and Henry Stoehr say they want to keep writing music, describing songwriting as the most enjoyable part of being in the band.
Slow Pulp - "I just want to write music all day"
Q: How do you do it then?
The band says Henry Stoehr's mother loaned them money for their first van, while the members worked jobs and shared a small Chicago apartment to keep the band going.
The Big Moon - "The way we became a band doesn't exist in the same way anymore"
Q: The story of the record, Jules, is a lot about the hearing issue you had. What's the name of it?
Jules identifies the condition as cholesteatoma, a cyst in the inner ear that can destroy it. Learning she would lose hearing on one side prompted her to write songs that helped her process the news and imagine a more hopeful future.
The Big Moon - "The way we became a band doesn't exist in the same way anymore"
Q: You've been a band since 2014. First record came out in 2017. Have you got into any kind of semblance of a routine with the job of it?
The band say they have no fixed routine beyond counting album campaign cycles. Their work changes continually, which can be exciting but also unsettling.
Ginger Johnson - "I live to play my character"
Q: What was the decision behind going for Barbara?
Johnson chose Barbara Cartland because RuPaul would recognize the character, the choice was camp and visually striking, and it offered room for improvisation. Johnson also wanted to introduce younger viewers to Cartland.
