This episode marks the first time I’ve interviewed strangers at a show, as well as strangers in the street. It was very exciting, which is why I chose to re-record the intro to it. My first attempt was 20 minutes, this one is about 12. You’re welcome. In this episode you’ll find my conversations with Jack White fans in the queue for his surprise show at George Inn pub, as well as the artist Benjamin Hope who I just happened to find painting in the street. Thank you very much to all of the above people for letting me talk to you with a microphone, and I hope all who hear this enjoy it. Ali’s recommendations were The Shivers  -- https://theshivers.bandcamp.com --  and Alice Phoebe Lou  -- https://www.alicephoebelou.com --  and Wes will be at Great Escape festival with Esther Joy -- https://soundcloud.com/estherjoylane --  You can find more from Benjamin Hope at: Website -- https://www.benjaminhope.net --  Instagram  -- https://www.instagram.com/benhopeartist --  Twitter -- https://www.twitter.com/benhopeartist Facebook -- https://www.facebook.com/benhopeartist -- Romeo Crow’s podcast can be found here: -- https://www.romeocrow.com/podcasts --  And you can find me at the usual places: Twitter -- https://www.twitter.com/saddestnightout --  Instagram -- https://www.instagram.com/saddestnightout --  Email -- [email protected] -- Patreon -- https://www.patreon.com/saddestnightout -- Thanks for listening and I’ll see you tomorrow.

Keeping it REAL short this time around. I'm just putting out the plan that I've been kicking around, as well as musing on the artist Boy Pablo. And then playing a little piano. But if all goes to plan, mine won't be the only voice you hear on this podcast for too long. Stay tuned. I highly recommend watching Boy Pablo's video for Everytime -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lzi7ljJiLJQ -- Twitter -- https://www.twitter.com/saddestnightout -- Instagram -- https://www.instagram.com/saddestnightout --  Email -- [email protected] -- Patreon -- https://patreon.com/saddestnightout --

This is my interview with the band Fur before their headline show at The Old Blue Last on Friday 23rd March. In it they walk us through their history; from how they met in Brighton, to playing their first show (where they headlined and it sold out!), to playing a whole bunch of support slots and even surviving a rough patch. It was enormous fun to record, and the show wasn't half bad either. Thank you to Murray, Harry, Tav, and Flynn for your time, and to anyone who happens to discover them via this podcast: You're Welcome.

Kenneth and I go waay back. We lived around the corner from each other when we were kids, then I moved away when I was 14, and we were in our mid to early twenties before we caught up again. So this is more than finding out his taste in new music, it was also a chance to learn a little about what I missed while we were apart. There are many artists that we touch on in this conversation, including: Kota The Friend | Joyner Lucas | Chance The Rapper | Kendrick Lamar | Yeezus | Run The Jewels | Danny Brown | Migos | Benny Mails | Giggs | Isaiah Rashad | Wilco | RY X | Mac DeMarco | Dashboard Confessional | Sylvan LaCue Yeah, we get into it. Between us, Ken is a lot cooler than me, so I took this as a bit of a homework session. Feel free to do the same. Otherwise thanks for listening, and feel free to say hello via the internet in the usual places. Office hours only please.

What you will find in this episode is me gushing about some of the music and musicians that have captured my attention recently. I play a little of the soundtrack for Annihilation by Ben Salisbury and Geoff Barrow, the song Ingenue by Atoms For Peace, the soundtrack for Gone Girl by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, and I talk a little about the following bands: Fur -- https://www.facebook.com/furbabyfur -- Blue Bendy -- https://www.facebook.com/bluebendyband --  Slonk -- https://slonk.bandcamp.com --  With Bravado -- https://www.facebook.com/withbravado --  Longy -- https://www.whoislongy.com -- Whenyoung -- https://www.facebook.com/whenyoungband -- Grizzly on the Planet -- https://soundcloud.com/grizzlyontheplanet  -- Thanks for listening, and feel free to say hi to me online: Twitter -- https://www.twitter.com/saddestnightout --  Instagram -- https://www.instagram.com/saddestnightout --  Email -- [email protected] -- Patreon -- https://www.patreon.com/saddestnightout --

Heading out to a show, and getting a little nervous about approaching strangers with a microphone. This is what that nervousness sounds like. Also a brisk scroll through Spotify's New Music Friday UK playlist, and some half-finished jamming on the electic guitar to play us out.

A whole week's worth of episodes, how did we get here?! I honestly wasn't sure I make it this far, but I'll pat myself on the back in my own time. On this episode I'm thinking about whether there's a more streamlined method for an artist to announce themselves as worthy of your attention. And then I play a calm instrumental number on the electric. Thanks for listening and feel free to say hi to me over the internet.

This podcast is officially available on iTunes! I'd like to thank God and Jesus, the little people, and the kitchen sink from whence this all started. On today's episode I'm talking about how we can measure the impact that a new artist makes, the best way to herald the arrival of a new capital J Jam, some of the new music I'm enjoying so far from 2018, and all of this while I'm washing dishes again. And the music at the end is a little piece I recorded back in 2016. Thank you to anyone that listens, and do feel free to say hello to me online and/or pledge £1 a month to my Patreon.

Trying to keep it short and sharp on this one, not necessarily succeeding. Today's topics include money, nerves, changing habits, and finding new music via Instagram Live, which is how I came upon the music played in today's episode. Yes, in a SADDESTNIGHTOUT first, I play some music that isn't my own. And that esteemable honour goes to the band Leevan, whose song "Yo No Vengo, Yo No Soy" features in this episode. You can find more about them here -- https://www.facebook.com/leevanoficial -- https://www.twitter.com/leevanoficial --  https://www.instagram.com/leevanoficia -- Thanks for listening.

So if I'm going to do this everyday, it'll help to have some structure to how I do it. That's the meat of this episode. Also I talk about some of the new music that has my attention in 2018, as well as my plans for this week. As always you can find me online, and do consider (nothing more, just consider) pledging to my Patreon for £1 a month. Thanks. Instagram -- https://www.instagram.com/saddestnightout -- Twitter -- https://www.twitter.com/saddestnightout -- Patreon -- https://www.patreon.com/saddestnightout -- PS. for future episodes I would really like to hear from you. This week I'm talking about new music, so if there's any new music that you think deserves more attention, send it to me as well as (if you can) a recording of yourself explaining why you like the music you're championing, and I'll put into one of my episodes.
