Lecturer, songwriter, performer, artist and one half of Bristol duo Hysterical Injury, Annie Gardiner is this week's guest on the Sheer Isolation Podcast.

We talk about her musical past, present and future, and where her inspiration came from to create a visual representation of just how male-centric the music industry can be.

Two great tunes as ever - a new track from Malmesbury's Will Lawton and the Alchemists, plus Annie's choice; American husband and wife duo, The Handsome Family.

The Sheer Isolation podcast is created weekly to promote the music scene in the West of England. It's created by Kieran Moore in Trowbridge and Jon Ponting near Cricklade.
