I Formed A Band is a podcast that talks to people who formed bands about the part before they got famous: why did they do it, what did it take to get there, and what was life like when they were forming a band?
It’s hosted by Eddie Argos, who formed a band called Art Brut [https://open.spotify.com/artist/1gxXzfykdtDuod56hPkYyr?si=mGwglsEATe6pJI6atckAKg] and sings a song called Formed A Band [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qryAwfpHG8o]; and Joe Sparrow, who did not form a band [https://terelinck.com/], but probably should have done.
There’s a huge, secret story behind every successful band: a heady mix of ambition, desperation, perseverance, daydreams, sleeping on sofas, surviving hangovers in the back of a Transit van, and dumb luck. That's what this podcast is about.
(And it's also about compiling The Argos Catalogue: a comprehensive collection of Eddie's various stories of meeting members of the Wu-Tang Clan in a lift, or singing Half Man Half Biscuit songs with Liam Gallagher, etc)

Eddie Argos is a man so obsessed with forming bands that he did it, recorded a song about it, wrote a book about it, painted pictures about it – and now has a podcast where he can ask other people the timeless question: "why did you form a band?"
Join him and sort-of journalist Joe Sparrow (who didn't form a band) as they talk to artists about the part before they got famous: why did they form a band, what did it take to get there, and what was life like while they were doing it?
