The Paper Crane

This week we chat with the lovely Alan Sparhawk from Low. In this wide-ranging chat we discuss Low’s latest record Hey What, the process of covering songs, what it’s like losing a parent and much more.

Outside of the interview we find out how Ciaran got along with his Beatles playlist...

Low's brilliant new album is available now from wherever you get your records from - go and buy it as it's incredible.

In our first episode we're very happy to welcome Stuart Braithwaite from bands Mogwai and Minor Victories.

In this episode we discuss Mogwai's Mercury nomination, going to number 1, composing for film & TV, John Peel, explicit band t-shirts and one of the most disheartening experiences for bands; the "disco load-out".

For each episode we'll be putting together Spotify playlists, you can find this episode's playlist here: https://spoti.fi/2WOjE9I
