Handcast - 1. Setting the Scene & Play Some Ska


Listen Later

Robin and Tilston set the scene for how Random Hand came to record ‘Change of Plan’ and the abandoned first attempt. They get into the moment that inspired Robin to write 'Play Some Ska' and what was going on at the time in our local scene. The process of resurrecting the songs from 'Change of plan" is discussed, and how it was for all involved. And they reminisce about how their headline tour 6 months after the Album was released exceeded expectations


A minor camera issue means we lose Tilston for the last 15 mins, but you can hear him!
