Down With Boring

Down With Boring is celebrating The Great Escape with a special edition recorded live at the festival, held earlier this month. Caught up in the buzz and hype of the Brighton event, Jake and Jamie are catching up with some of the most exciting new names across the three days, including Nell Mescal, Lime Garden and SOFY.

Last week, our flagship podcast-slash-radio-show-slash-nonsense Down With Boring embarked on an IRL journey with the mighty Swim Deep, to London’s The Boogaloo. There, we reminisced over a decade of the band’s debut album ‘Where The Heaven Are We’ for a night of stories, memories, special guests and very good music. Aired at the time on Boogaloo Radio, you can catch up with this week’s special edition of Down With Boring. We’ll be back with our usual service of new music and ‘stuff’ next week.

Catching up with Do Nothing, the headliners of April’s sell-out show at London’s Sebright Arms, we’re checking in as Nottingham’s premier purveyors of new band buzz continue their run-up to an impossibly exciting debut album. A big, bumper interview special, normal service will resume next time around, now Jamie has come down from his, erm, mountain(?). Don’t ask.

On this week's show, we're talking to one of the buzziest new names around, Gretel Hänlyn. There's also a dive into the new album from boygenius, plus new music from Nell Mescal, The Japanese House and more.

Blazing a trail as they go, Swim School are quite probably one of the most exciting bands in the country right now – and they’re fronting up an episode typically packed with new music. There’s also a focus on the new album from Black Honey, plus new music from Sabrina Carpenter, VLURE, Balancing Act and loads more

Fresh off announcing a huge Alexandra Palace show, we're catching up with Dork fave Cavetown on the latest edition of Down With Boring. Plus new music from Shame, CHVRCHES, Priestgate, Lucia & The Best Boys, Do Nothing and more.

This week, we’re chatting with Dork's Night Out headliners Coach Party, Sad Boys Club and Deep Tan at our recent first show of the year, alongside all kinds of other musical ‘fun’. There’s also a focus on the new album from SG Lewis, plus new music from Dolores Forever, Inhaler, Swim School, Zara Larsson and loads more

Our flagship podcast-slash-radio-show Down With Boring welcomes our Dork Hype List Tour 2023 headliners Priestgate, ahead of their jaunt round the country next month.

With a new EP due later this year, we’re catching up with the band before they head out with Bleach Lab and Medicine Cabinet. There’s also a focus on the new album from current cover stars The Murder Capital, plus new music from boygenius, CMAT, Nell Mescal, VLURE, The Goa Express and loads more
