The Fantastival Podcast is back again with the special #164 and as we head into Mental Health Awareness Week we’re delighted to be joined by The Artist Taxi Driver, the one and only, Mr Mark McGowan… We hear from Mark who talks about all aspects of his life, with lots of music thoughts, stories and memories starting at an early age through to his art exhibition at The Bethlem Gallery, from a recent gig experience to teaching his students to be extraordinary, there is something here for everyone with some very wise words from our guest, and of course our lucky Mark gets to collate his Fantasy Festival lineup as he can only choose 5 acts, with all 5 getting to collectively play any song to close his Fantasy Festival as Mark takes huge delight and with great difficulty as he whittles down his acts to create a Fantastival unlike no other for you to enjoy.
