We talk to Eoin Glaister about the past ten years of directing music videos and making people laugh. Eoin’s credits include brilliant promos for Joji, Beirut, Glass Animals, Aquilo, Kele Okereke, Mentis, and his new one for La Priest - where a woman falls in love with a fatberg. We find out how he gravitated towards comedy, how he developed a knack for making trilogies - and why he thinks that a dog is a director’s best friend.

So in this episode we dive into Music Video History, as Andy takes us back to those wild times of big hair and big budgets, and how he created the most iconic guitar solo in music videos for November Rain. Andy also takes us back further to how he began his career, making some of the best loved British videos of the 80s - including classics for George Michael and Pet Shop Boys.
