Priptona Talks – To Zoe Graham
I had the absolute pleasure of interviewing the wonderfully talented Zoe Graham earlier this week. We discussed her recently released debut album, TENT, covering tracks on the album, the production process and other aspects of her career to date. Zoe also talks about her headline shows coming up in September – she’ll be playing at…
Living in the 80(s) Days
There has been yet more nostalgia tripping for the band that prides itself on not wanting to be seen as a ‘heritage’ act. Yet more celebrations to do with THAT SONG having its 40th anniversary. Simple Minds fans had a busy night last night. No sooner was Radio 2’s Sounds of the 80s (being co-hosted…
Doing The Rounds – Promo Circuit Time
Preparations for this year’s touring has begun with a stint of promotional spots on TV and radio. First of which saw Mr Kerr ‘flying solo’ with a spot on the This Morning couch, the footage of which is only available to view for UK audiences of ITV/STV. People abroad – trust me when I say…
And The Good News Is – Some People Measure Success Differently
“I am mightier than most. I am ‘the big I am’.” This self-congratulatory twaddle increasingly gets on my wick. You know, someone with a good measure of humility would just acknowledge that it was the 30th anniversary of the album’s release without all of this “we grew a backbone and did what most people can…

The Quay Sessions with KT Tunstall and Loudon Wainwright III
It was a lovely crisp, clear evening in Glasgow last night. It’s amazing to think that less than a week prior, the city was feeling the full force of Storm Eowyn – the contrast couldn’t have been more stark! In recent times making my way to this part of the city (Clydeside – by Pacific…

Conversation, Kimmel and a game of “Who’s that?”
Some SM news for you. Firstly, Mr Kerr was on a morning radio show on the SoCal Sound (southern California college radio – can’t believe college radio is STILL a thing!) with Nic Harcourt + Jet. Most of the usual twaddle with lots of selective memory band “history” thrown in for good measure. Fifteen minutes…

Craig Charles Interview With Hamish Hawk – BBC 6 Music 20/01/2025
I caught this interview this afternoon. This man is so lovely and so humble, I cannot wait for the gigs to come in a few weeks time. First I’ll be off to Aberdeen, then a couple of days later I’ll make my way down to The Toon (aka Newcastle), then it’ll be a patient wait…

Feedback Interview of the Year 2024
I’ve only recently became a regular listener to the Feedback programme/podcast. It started due to a special they had on The Archers, soon followed by an edition featuring Dead Ringers. From that point on I’ve dipped into listening to it most weeks. I knew the Interview of the Year programme was coming up. When it…
