It's the end of Series 1 and it leaves us reflective about the profound impact of our journey.

These conversations, often lasting hours, revealed the depth of human experience and the universal nature of our challenges. Despite the technical difficulties...

We are delighted to introduce Dave Norgrove, a talented singer songwriter who also happens to have a long standing background working in mental health in a variety of settings.

Dave shares his journey through music, from his early influences to the songs that have shaped his life, particularly during challenging times. The conversation delves into the emotional connections formed th...

Adam has to be the least assuming musical talent we know and perhaps have ever met. His humility is profound and his musical gifts have served many well known artists, enriching and fortifying their greatest songs. He is a uniquely attuned and brilliant guitar player and his own sublime body of work, the album ‘Let It Go’, has so far largely gone unnoticed by the mainstream. It’s the kind of music, like the man himself, that will soothe your system and we've no hesitation in...

Those of loneliness, isolation, feeling different and musi...

My word, SO many brilliant bumper sticker quotes from this episode. Si has a way of speaking in metaphors, painting pictures in our minds.

His profound life experience offers rare perspectives on situations that we all face, in our own unique ways, drawn from his own life lessons, bringing hope & possibility to the darkest corners. He is our dear friend & his music is unimaginably...

We were all pretty nervous while preparing for our first real guest interview until we jumped in. Dan was so enthusiastic for this project. Such a talented man and wide open to share his experiences. He tells his stories with generosity and courageous vulnerability, while also talking about some of the deepest parts of the queer experience: open relationships, shame, promiscuity and HIV. His songs explore what it means to be so vulnerable in an uncertain world. Casablanca's music ...

Hello! So happy you're here with us! This is a bit of a sneak preview... We're putting this episode out ahead of all the others just to test the systems and not telling anyone. It gives us a couple of weeks for the remaining song licenses to come through and for the two of us to hide a little longer. If you've found this, please be kind... it get's better... really! We've never before talked to each other while being recorded and, while having no idea how what we are doing...
