  • Shed Session 20: Yellow County
    Warren welcomes freshly formed Yellow County into his home. The trio carry the Catgod torch across green fields and into the Shed at the end of the garden. The musical performances coming from this cozy, inspiring space continue to amaze us. The sounds are expertly recorded and mixed by Tiger Mendonza and Warren guides us into unchartered waters with his honest and enthusiastic hosting as well as a truly inexhaustible love for music. Cat, Paddy and George release exquisite notes up into the brooding english Summer skies where they twist and mingle with the birds then elegantly sway and turn, evading the warm heavy raindrops, upon their return to the damp ground below. They are the loveliest people and with their awe inspiring musical talent and genuine conversation, we are carried above the patchy clouds and the dreaming spires of Oxford. Thank you for listening.

  • Shed Session 19: Page of Swords
    Warren hosts Page of Swords, the solo project by Ian Mitchell of the formidable Barrelhaus. Warren, freshly inspired by a train journey in and out of the heart of London, feels that the same forces at play for Nick Cave have brought Page of Swords into the shed for a cosmic evening of music and conversation. We learn about Ian’s work ethic, his new Hummingbird Dreadnought as well as Warren’s guitar related Toy Story idea! The outstanding audio production by Tiger Mendoza allows us to experience the music as if we were in the shed with them. Thank you for listening. You can find out more about Page of Swords on Bandcamp:

  • Shed Session 18: Pet Twin
    Warren is thrilled to be joined by Pet Twin, an electronic (at times) project based in Oxford led by Juniper Nights frontman James Gallagher. The evening is filled with the joys of the Summer Solstice and we are treated to uplifting music (even though it's soaked in melancholy). Light hearted conversation brings forth deeper insights into the artistry behind this superb music. You can hear more music from Pet Twin here: https://pettwin.bandcamp.com/ and see more on Instagram here: @pet.twin and photos from the session here: @shedtreasures

  • Shed Session 17: Lee Switzer-Woolf
    Warren is joined in the shed by Lee Switzer-Woolf, an alternative artist from Reading. His superb dark indie-folk lifts you up just when you thought sad songs could only drag you down. We're rolling through the precinct, the sun lights up the grey concrete of the building site, the birdsong pierces the crushing tones of the drills. We fall, we get up, a builder says how nice it is to see us skating to school. Later in the evening, Lee shares a brilliant insight into writing, wellbeing, his home town and stunning acoustic versions of songs from two new albums (plus a preview of a brand new track!) Join Warren in the front row for another incredible performance and lovely conversation. You can find out more about Lee's music here: https://leeswitzerwoolfmusic.com/ ; https://open.spotify.com/artist/39FQMAp2C86W7yagW3n43h ; https://leeswitzerwoolf.bandcamp.com/music and on Instagram - @leeswitzerwoolfmusic Photos from the session are available on Instagram here: @shedtreasures .

  • Shed Session 16: Cholly
    With great pleasure Warren welcomes Cholly into the shed for a performance to transport us o’er the far peaks and into a realm of tranquility, like a round pebble bouncing along the bed of a crystal clear mountain stream.  The electronic compositions meld into a futuristic talisman, greeting us with magical solutions to the day’s problems. Warren chats with Chloe about her inspirations as well as her brilliant new album ‘Anomaly’. We are also treated to sublime live performances of some of the new tracks. Find out more about our new favourite artist here: https://cholly.bandcamp.com/album/anomaly and to see photos of the session via Instagram here: @shedtreasures

  • The Flaming Keys: Unplugged at The White House (part 2)
    Welcome to part 2 of Shed Sessions Unplugged at The White House. We get to hear music and conversation from The Flaming Keys in this final act of the evening. The band have created that MTV unplugged sound from the 90's. Stunning renditions of songs by Morcheeba, No Doubt, Nirvana, Skunk Anansie, Radiohead and NIN have us all losing ourselves in the musical equivalent of the Okavango Delta. Warren weaves his stories through conversations with the band and we learn about Thom Yorke's autograph, a photo opportunity with Gwen Stefani and a moment with Skin. Warren draws the evening to a close with a nod to the drum which guided us safely through these magical sessions. Thank you for listening.

  • Tiger Mendoza: Unplugged at The White House (part 1)

    This is the first of two acts performed and recorded in The White House pub in Oxford, live with an audience. Tiger Mendoza (musician, producer and beat maker) along with Dan Clear on guitar share a stunning acoustic set with us. They are joined on stage by special guests, Mila Todd, Octavia Freud and Emma Hunter. The music leads Warren into his safe place. From the warm golden savannah, he reaches out with storytelling and conversation while the audience helps shape this beautiful session with their lovely presence and appreciation. Part 2 with The Flaming Keys is coming soon. Thank you for listening.

  • Shed Session 15: Emma Hunter

    The full moon, early spring, snow storms and International Women's Day 2023 have aligned for Emma Hunter. The exceptional duo that is Emma Hunter and Tom Bruce are tuned in to their surroundings and each other's creative flow like no other. The cinematic soundscapes are painted with stunning vocals, mesmerising loops, percussive drumming, intriguing narrative and inspired chat. Warren and his guests feel the warm creative glow inside the shed like they are in a cave overlooking a dark cold ocean, the light from calming yellow flames flickering against the ancient rock walls and sacred music calling out to the watery expanse beyond. Thank you for listening.

  • Shed Session 14: EB
    Warren is thrilled to be joined in the shed by EB: producer, DJ, singer songwriter, artist and downright wonderful person. EB shares an acoustic set that captivates, resonates, soothes and delights. EB and our host have relaxed and interesting conversations sprinkled carefully like icing sugar around four exquisite songs. We get to learn about some of the new material EB is working on, DJ nights in The Library, the song writing process, the start of EB's musical journey and beer. Sit  back, keep running, walking, bathing or whatever you do while listening to podcast episodes and lose yourself in another magical performance. "Be bold, be honest, be brave, be true, be kind, be loving, be you", this is EB's call to arms from "Tired" off the "Rodeo Queen EP" and this Shed Session shows us how all of that can be achieved! Thank you for listening.

  • Shed Session 13: The Bobo and Kid Kin
    Warren is joined in the shed by two phenomenal artists: Maria (The Bobo) and Pete (Kid Kin). Their collaborations gently scoop you up and place you on a magic carpet ride above the rooftops and countryside, then through the clouds and smoothly back to earth somewhat changed (for the better) by the journey. Tiger Mendoza has done an exquisite job with the audio production, ensuring the music sounds as pure and as crisp as the icy cold clear night outside. Warren's shed delights his guests and once again helps bring the performance to a place filled with magic and honest conversation. Hear about the exciting music Maria and Pete are making which is due to be released in the Spring. I know Warren can't wait to hear more from one of his favourite collaborations ever!
