For this episode I’m delighted to say that broken folk duo Lunatraktors are my guests.

One of the reasons I love doing this podcast is I get to sit down with people that are far more intelligent than me and pick their brains. This conversation with Clair and Carli was a great example of that.

 

Our chat explores:

 

How to cultivate a sense of community with your music

 

Playing for ‘exposure’

 

Why there is no such thing as the music industry

 

How musicians can stay true creatively whilst being commercially viable

 

Also, they were kind enough to send me their press package, so around halfway through the episode I’ve spliced in my favourite song called Lover Lover Lover from their new album The Missing Star.
