  • Lillie Mae - Terlingua Girl
    Jul 6 2021
    We close our series with a very special guest. We first heard Lillie Mae's music when we went to Nashville in 2019 and quickly became huge fans. It was such a joy to speak to someone so authentic. She really is an artist through and through. We talk through favourite tea blends, life in a family band and her breathtaking song, ‘Terlingua Girl’.

  • James Morrison - Power
    Apr 15 2021
    It was a highlight of our lockdown to speak with the wonderful James Morrison. We toured together a couple of years ago and were in awe of his commitment, stage presence and unbelievable voice. On top of that, he’s one of the funniest and most humble artists we’ve had the pleasure to meet. We talk through the art of ‘simple’ songwriting, committing to a record, and his sunshine anthem, ’Power’.
