Graham Parker

Graham Parker in conversation with David Eastaugh https://www.grahamparker.net/Home.html In the spring of 1975, Graham Parker, a 24-year-old petrol pump attendant from Surrey, England, began to drive up to London to meet like-minded musicians and get a backing band behind his songs, which he now considered to be stronger and more interesting than anything he was hearing on the radio. By placing an advert in the Melody Maker he met Noel Brown, a guitarist, and Paul “Bassman” Riley, a bass player who had featured in Chilli Willi and The Red Hot Peppers, a so- called “pub rock” band that had recently split up. Riley thought Parker should meet Dave Robinson, a manager who ran a small studio above the Hope and Anchor pub in Islington. Robinson had previously managed Brinsley Schwarz, another demised pub rock outfit that included its eponymous guitarist, Nick Lowe on bass and Bob Andrews on keyboards.

Annie Hogan  in conversation with David Eastaugh https://annihogan.co.uk/ https://annihogan.bandcamp.com/ Annie Hogan studied piano before attending Leeds University in 1979 to study politics. It was while in Leeds she met Marc Almond and Dave Ball at a local music venue. In 1980, Hogan took a year out and began DJing and promoting in local clubs. Some of her first bookings were bands like Soft Cell and the Human League. Later in London, she met Matt Johnson from the The who introduced her to Simon Fisher Turner who she began recording with on an album titled Deux Filles. It was this recording that began her working relationship with Almond, after he had heard Hogan playing on the album. Almond then asked her to collaborate on his solo material. Her first ever live concert was performing with an early line up of Marc and the Mambas at the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane. The line up consisted of Hogan, Almond and Matt Johnson.

Roxane Jessi in conversation with David Eastaugh https://www.roxanejessi.com/ Thirty-five years into the Burning Man movement, there are now over 100 annual events around the world. In 2018, aid worker Roxane Jessi set out to experience seven of these events firsthand, to get to the heart of a culture that is creating community in a disconnected world. Her journey spanned five continents, from Afrikaburn to Black Rock City, Blazing Swan to Burning Japan, Fuego Austral, Midburn and Nowhere. This is the story of that eye-opening odyssey, and the first book of its kind to provide a glimpse into Burning Man's eclectic Regional Network.

David Cousins in conversation with David Eastaugh https://strawbsweb.co.uk/index0.asp Founded in 1964 as the Strawberry Hill Boys. The band started out as a bluegrass group, but eventually moved on to other styles such as folk rock and progressive rock. They are best known for their hit "Part of the Union", which reached number two in the UK Singles Chart in February 1973, as well as for "Lay Down", a popular progressive rock hit from the same LP. Strawbs toured with Supertramp in their "Crime of the Century" tour, doing their own "Hero and Heroine" tour, which drew musical similarities and themes.

That's what the Kingsnakes were in San Francisco in 1980, part of a local music scene comprised of punk, new wave, and hard rock acts. Led by Frenchman Daniel Jeanrenaud, a fervent disciple of Gene Vincent, the Kingsnakes also featured James Ferrell (guitar), Ze Moita (bass), Danny Mihm (drums) and Karl Malinowski (guitar). This previously unreleased live set captures the band opening for Robert Gordon at the Old Waldorf, just a few months before they supported Chuck Berry at the same venue. Local KALX deejay Terry Hammer was on hand to record the raucous soundboard mix. The final two songs on this album are bonus studio sessions. Live at the Old Waldorf: June 5, 1981, is part of Liberation Hall’s ongoing “Sounds from the San Francisco Underground” series.

Simon Dunford (guitar/vocals), Andy Murphy (guitar), Steve Cox (bass), and Neil Cox (drums) had begun playing together in university.  They released their debut single (a flexi-disc) "Sofaelaine" in 1990. After their single "Sad Anne" they added a fifth member, Krzysztof Fijalkowski (guitar) and got a deal with Cheree Records. Their debut full-length, "Eye Baby", got some underground support. In 1994, with Murphy no longer with the band (replaced by Yves Altana), their long-awaited follow-up, V-Neck, appeared. The album failed to make an impact, and the group faded away.

Greg Jarvis

Greg Jarvis in conversation with David Eastaugh https://www.flowersofhell.com/ https://flowersofhell.bandcamp.com/album/keshakhtaran The Flowers of Hell are a transatlantic experimental orchestra made up of a revolving line-up of 16 or so independent musicians based in Toronto and London. Their mostly instrumental sound builds bridges between classical music and post-rock, shoegaze, space rock and drone music, often resulting in their being described as an orchestral extension of the work of The Velvet Underground and Spacemen 3. They are led by synesthete composer Greg Jarvis. Much of their repertoire is an exploration of the timbre-to-shape synesthesia that causes Jarvis to involuntarily perceive all sounds as floating abstract visual forms.

Tommy Stinson in conversation with David Eastaugh https://www.tommystinson.com/ Stinson's latest venture is Cowboys in the Campfire. A duo with Chip Roberts, their debut album ‘Wronger’ is perhaps the most ‘American' album he has ever made, its ten songs riding a giddy trail of twang and grit, melody and (mostly lyrical) mayhem. The very first song, ‘Here We Go Again’, sets the tone; Stinson on ukulele, singing about the ardours of creativity, while horns swell and the only hint of percussion is from the tapping of feet by the musicians in the room. Stark and immediate, it is like sitting smack in the middle of a maelstrom.
