'Conviction' – with Architects' Sam Carter

As revenue models have changed, merchandise has become increasingly important to the livelihoods of many musicians.

But fashion is also a big polluter and can be massively wasteful. British metal band Architects take a responsible approach. With their online merch store they release limited drops to reduce overstock, carefully select materials and manufacture in the UK to cut down on distribution.

Singer Sam Carter joins hosts Fay Milton and Greg Cochrane to discuss how and why they've taken these steps. Plus, he chats about his work as an ambassador for Sea Shepherd UK – a non-profit marine wildlife organisation dedicated to end the destruction of ocean habitats – whose profile was raised by Netflix's recent Seapiracy documentary.
