Yellow Brit Road

What an eventful week on the Yellow Brit Road! We were at Glastonbury festival this weekend, bringing you live performances straight from Worthy Farm (or from our little Caruthers Hall basement... join us in mind and spirit!). We also had many performances by queer musicians playing the festival this weekend.

I also got to chat to the creators and hosts of the Desi LGBT Fest, a festival celebrating queer identities, art and expression within South Asian communities around the world (**FULL INTERVIEW OUT THURSDAY)! This week's setlist:

(Do say hello if you listen, I'd love to meet you).

Also, do remember to have your taxes done by tomorrow! This has been a PSA.

Here is all the music mentioned on this week's show.

• Just Mustard
• Fontaines D.C.
• Spiritualized

(Footnote: it appears I forgot to hit publish on this week's show, apologies for that, hope you still got your taxes done in time, and more power to your elbow for bravely soldiering on episode-less in a world where radio listeners had a show this week and you didn't...)

We discussed the environmental impacts of touring, the dirty secrets of merch at show venues, and of course, listened to great new releases as always. This week, we had music by
