    On the Yellow Brit Road, we are celebrating the return of live music after 2 years off, as the summer of live music and festivals comes to an end. We're looking back at 4 months of hearts racing, crowds singing, friendships formed, memories created, ordinary people turning into heroes and gods for 45 minutes.

    Throwing back to the first of the summer festivals that kicked off at the end of March, the 6 Music Festival in Cardiff. We listened to Bloc Party's headlining set at the Great Hall.

    The full show may be available for a limited time on the podcast, depending on conditions. Catch it now, or catch full shows in the archive.

  • Yellow Brit Road 14 August 2022: Kiwi Jr. Interview

    Jeremy Gaudet, singer, guitarist, lyricist and songwriter in the rising Toronto-based indie rock band Kiwi jr. joins me for an interview as the band release their third studio album, Chopper!
