Zach Blair and Laurie Black Round Up, News and Reviews

On this episode of the Banned Biographies podcast your host, Tom Austin-Morgan, lets you know what’s been going on since the last TWO episodes and what you can expect from the next one.

Firstly, I'd like to thank Zach Blair again very much for giving up some of his precious time to talk to me at the end of last year, it was so nice to meet him and find out he was just a regular, nice dude who enjoys chatting music. But, I released a sneaky extra episode this month, didn’t I? I’d been wanting to talk to Laurie Black since I saw her support Adam Ant at the end of last Summer. Thanks to photographer Max Caine we reconnected and recorded that great conversation you heard a couple of weeks ago. Australian listeners, you still have time to get yourselves to a show at the Adelaide and Melbourne fringe festivals to go and see what she’s all about. I urge you to go and see her, you won’t be disappointed.

It's been a really great month for interaction and I’m really glad you all feel passionate enough about music and have been encouraged to get in touch with me. I love a good natter about music, so please do stay in touch and, if you’ve not got in touch via social media or email then please do, and do go and leave me a five star rating and more importantly a review on Apple Podcasts.
