Finely Tuned & OUT TO PROVE | County Pilots - Matt Joe Hall | EP28
Join us for Episode 28 of our local music podcast as we sit down with Matt Joe Hall, frontman of the Lancashire indie band County Pilots. Known for blending retro 60’s pop influences with modern indie pop styles, County Pilots have carved out a unique sound that’s gaining attention across the UK local music scene.
In this episode, Matt shares his journey from writing music as a child to forming County Pilots, a band celebrated for their tight vocal harmonies and captivating live performances. We discuss the band’s early singles, their biggest influences, and what it really takes to build a strong live sound. Matt opens up about working with producers, overcoming challenges, and how the band has evolved over the years to become the best version of themselves.
We also dive into the importance of local music venues like The Continental and The Ferret in Preston, and why County Pilots believe connecting with audiences through unforgettable live shows matters more than chasing Spotify streams. With their music regularly featured on BBC Introducing Lancashire, the band continues to push forward with big goals for the future—including an album Matt hopes to one day share with his grandkids.
Whether you’re an indie music fan, songwriter, aspiring musician, or local band supporter, this conversation is full of insight and inspiration. Don’t miss Matt’s candid thoughts on what it takes to thrive as a working musician while staying true to your art.
