It’s our first interview for quite a while and who better to have on the show than Josh ‘Cappers’ Caplin. Josh is a drummer, MD and playback engineer extraordinaire working for the likes of Charlotte Plank, Central Cee, Charli XCX, FKA Twigs and Rag’n’Bone Man. Having just come off tour drumming for James Marriott in the USA we talk about his journey into playback, his role as an MD and how he juggles working with such big artists. We also chat about his influences growing up, practising, switching to Zildjian cymbals in one big spree and why he won’t go anywhere without his Black Beauty. Enjoy!

On this week’s show George has become obsessed with Raye and her song ‘Where Is My Husband!’, played some gigs with 80s HiFi and a new band, had more car issues and drove around Northampton in the middle of the night trying to find a working McDonald’s. Ben did a very easy gig and bought a guitar on the way to the hospital. Enjoy!

Ben’s back from Las Vegas and is now a married man! You’ll have to excuse the sleep deprivation as between landing and recording this episode Ben had to spend a quick 38 hours in A&E! Despite that he runs through his trip including visiting Rudy at the Las Vegas Drum Room, the best spinach in the world, having his pick of the Mustangs and going to a Netflix themed restaurant… oh and getting married by Elvis! George is living in 2020 with Covid and being sexist at Halfords. Enjoy!

It’s the big 200! Have we done anything special to mark the occasion? Nah, it’s business as usual. George went to a gig with a menagerie of previous guests and gives us a rundown and vocal demonstration of the Taylor Swift tribute set he’s got coming up. Ben’s experiencing tech issues in the new studio and couldn’t get his cat to the vet. Enjoy!

There’s been lots of good progress with Ben’s new studio; the neon sign is in, the drums are in but how effective is the soundproofing? There was also an evening trip to Southampton hitting his favourite stops of IKEA, the Lego store and the Apple store. It was not a cheap trip. George had one of the most chaotic gigs on the weekend and spent time at his work in the kitchen with Janusz from The Great British Bake Off. Enjoy!

After leaving The Old Blacksmiths Studios for the last time Ben had a busy few days gigging in Newmarket then driving back to Pompey then up to Cambridge on the train for a septuple celebration then a drive back to Pompey. While all that was going on George not only went to Victorious but blagged his way backstage and marvelled at the four reserved parking spaces for Kings Of Leon. We also chat about Reading and Leeds and drummer lookalikes. Enjoy!
