Summer is here, pubs are reopening, gigs are happening and we are back with another episode. What a time to be alive.On Episode 39 we welcome the delightful Dan Stevenson.

Of course Adam and Dan discuss his favourite shows ever as a musician and a fan. Expect horror stories of injuries, fights with crowds and cutting drives fine for stage times.

Hi everyone and welcome back to the podcast and a new episode. Sorry for the impromptu break but life has been a busy one.
But we are back with Kitty & Jon of the ferocious, self described ‘disgusting’ band, Saint Agnes.
Reknowned for their visuals and high energy shows we went deep on their live shows and some of their top gigs off all time where they clearly draw a lot of inspiration from.
Due to the break we owe you more episodes so Adam will be back next week with his first guest to appear twice on the podcast!

Happy Bank Holiday everyone and hope everyone has had a chocolate filled long weekend.
Episode 35 is here with Josh & Joe of the ever expanding experimental band Poly-Math. We talk about their new two part album ‘The Cadaver Tomb’, their process of writing and recording and the recruiting of various guest vocalists for the project.
As ever we talk about some of their favourite gigs ever. Poly-Math are a talented group of musicians that continue to push the boundaries of their songwriting and a treat to see live.
Last time Adam saw them live was unfortunately the last time seeing now defunct band Body Hound. Really sad to see them call it a day. A band that were truly one of the best on the UK scene. If you have not checked them out before you definitely should and probably go and snap up one of the handful of the records they have left for sale. R.I.P. Body Hound, you will be missed!
Next week we have another episode with a band who have kept creative during lockdown and causing a buzz from their live shows. SO keep an eye out for that by subscribing wherever you listen to your podcasts.
