Our latest episode featuring Shannon Jae Ridout is out now! We were happy to welcome another guest from across the pond to share their dream band line up. For Episode 51, joining us from Washington is folk artist Shannon Jae Ridout. After more than a decade away from performing and recording, Shannon triumphantly returns with Two Busted Boots And A Broken Heart, a collection of songs written by while traveling the United States over a decade ago. With raw, at times chilling vocals, she explores themes of love, loss, longing, grief, addiction, and mental health struggles.

“Two Busted Boots And A Broken Heart” is out tomorrow! Check out all the usual streaming services to give it a listen

Buckle up, we have a bumper edition for Episode 50! Joining us in the studio we have drummer extraordinaire George Grignon, from Derby band Kaliugah. If you haven’t checked these guys out yet we urge you to do so. Described as mixing Mahavishnu Orchestra, Pink Floyd & Meshuggah in a washing machine on a fast wash, they are one of the coolest bands you’ll ever see. Check them out here
