Three brilliant and varied upcoming artists at The Stables sit down and chat with Nick in this latest episode. China Crisis are marking the 40th anniversary of Working With Fire and Steel by playing the album in its entirety at The Stables. Eddie and Gary talk in depth about the early days of the group, growing up in Liverpool, still living at home when they became successful, the challenges of making their first album and the story behind Working With Fire and Steel. It's a fascinating extended chat.

Isabella Coulstock has just been supporting The Who this summer. She has her first headlining gig at The Stables on Stage 2. Her interview is also a great listen - she is a really talented young artist and an extremely vibrant interview guest. Her story about how she came to support Nell Brydon on tour is enough to make listening to the whole podcast worthwhile! Alison Young, Head of Programming at The Stables also chats to Nick to give some of the history behind Stage 2, which showcases emerging and unsigned talent.
