Tom Speight - Fate, Online Dating & Living With Crohn's Disease
December 09, 2019 06:00 - 40 minutes - 28 MBTom Speight is an incredible singer songwriter from London with over 1.1 MILLION monthly Spotify listeners. I found his song Into The Night through the magic of Spotify algorithms and I'm so glad I did. He has had a crazy couple of years personally, and when I saw that he was coming to Bristol - I HAD to grab him for a chat before his show. Such a positive outlook on life considering the ups and downs he's experienced. Not one to miss! Also... it's the LAST episode of series 2?! How did that ...

November 25, 2019 06:00 - 41 minutes - 28.5 MBKatie Sky is none other than one of my BEST FRIENDS! But also just so happens to be an insanely talented singer and songwriter. You may recognise her from her song Monsters, which was remixed by Timeflies back in 2014. Since then she's flown across the globe writing in various camps and sessions - and has very recently just got married (!!). She's one of my favourite people on planet EARTH, and I am so happy and excited that you guys can get to know her a bit better via this episode. We div...

She came to prominence at the 2014 Commonwealth Games, where she was the first English woman to win four gold medals since 1930. How bloody impressive is that?! She's only just turned 22 so I'm sure some of my questions were quite a lot to take ha! I'm mega grateful to her for opening up to me though and letting me in on her crazy little life. We dive into how s...

She's also a regular TV presenter on ITV and has recently become a Mum to the insanely cute little guy, Reggie. Oh, and she has the thickest Bristolian accent I think I've ever heard. I can't tell you how friendly, down-to-earth and easy to chat to she was. She put me at ...

I can't tell you how satisfying it feels to watch two such crazy talented songwriters actually get what they deserve in the music industry. I left Jose feeling SO GOOD about myself. She has such an infectious ha...

We both grew up on YouTube together back in 2008 - and I remember seeing her videos and thinking... holy mother of God. Who is this woman?? Her MGMT 'Electric Feel' cover still blows my mind to this day. She was wonderful enough to invite Meadowlark on tour with her after we'd only been a band for a few months! She's been nothing but kind and supportive to me over the years and it was a total pleasure to sit down with her and cha...
Woody (Bastille) - The Rise of Bastille, Touring & Becoming a Dad
September 02, 2019 05:00 - 59 minutes - 41.2 MBWoody is the drummer for the ridiculously talented and successful band Bastille. In June, they released their third album Doom Days and it's personally my all-time favourite. I can't listen to their song Joy and not feel exactly that. Being in a band that size and touring that much has to come with some crazy ups and downs, so I was so excited to have the opportunity to sit down with him and pick apart what it's like to live a life like that. Having toured just a fraction of the amount they h...

August 19, 2019 05:00 - 54 minutes - 37.8 MBBillie Marten is a 20 year old singer-songwriter from Ripon in North Yorkshire! She is without DOUBT the coolest 20 year old I've ever had the pleasure of spending time with. I don't think she'd mind me saying that she's an old soul in a young body. She has such insight and wisdom for her age and her incredible voice and music reflects that. She released her first EP at the age of FIFTEEN (!!) and her second EP just a year later. She was also nominated for the Sound of 2016 award. Basically, ...

Joshua Keogh (Amber Run)
June 09, 2019 23:00 - 1 hour - 29 MBMy guest today is Mr Joshua Keogh from the one and only AMBER RUN! Honestly... we wrote with him the day after we recorded this episode and I could NOT get over his voice when he started singing in the room. It blew my tiny little mind. He didn't go out of tune once. And fuck me, what an incredible writer and lyricist. It's likely you'll have heard Amber Run's music - their two songs 'I Found' and '5am' are two of my all-time favourites. And those two songs ALONE have over 122 MILLION plays o...
Kate McGill
May 26, 2019 16:00 - 55 minutes - 25.5 MBI am my OWN guest this week... thought it's only fair that the questions get turned on me. Thanks for asking me them Dan! For those who don't know my background - I started uploading YouTube videos when I was 17, somehow managed to gain some sort of online following; and then started our band Meadowlark with Dan. I'm the singer and it's the best job in the world. I am definitely NOT going to put my own stats up here. But go and listen to Meadowlark if you haven't yet! All the love x Today we...

I am eternally grateful to him for coming all the way down from London just to talk to me. He has over 1.6 MILLION Spotify monthly listeners and his songwriting and talent is finally getting the recognition it so deserves. He was wonderful enough to let Meadowlark tour with him back in the day and we love him endlessly. Thanks for ope...
Orla Gartland
April 28, 2019 14:00 - 1 hour - 31.2 MBMy guest today is only Orla Gartland! I met Orla about 10 years ago when she bought tickets to see me play in Dublin. SHE came to see ME play??? I'd seen her sing on YouTube of course - how could I forget those wonderful faces she makes? But more than that, I remembered how funny, open and talented she was. She's just got better and better with age and is absolutely killing it right now. With nearly 400,000 monthly listeners on Spotify and over 11.7 MILLION views on YouTube - she is a force t...
My Dad/Holistic Doctor

He has a history in medicine working as a GP, but now works full time as a Holistic doctor. He has so much wisdom and knowledge, and it'd be a crying shame if the world didn't get to hear what he had to say. Find out more about him and his work here: www.plymouthholisticdoctor.co.uk I will let him do the talking - as he's pretty fucking good at it. Hope you enjoyed this episode a...

Marié Digby
March 31, 2019 15:00 - 42 minutes - 19.4 MBMy guest today is none other than Marié Digby! I remember stumbling across her cover of Umbrella by Rihanna when I was 17 years old. That's a long time ago, team. I couldn't get over the insane talent and beauty she has - and I still can't, to be honest. Knowing her now and as a friend as well is just a huge treat. She has over 133 MILLION video views on YouTube and to this day makes the most wonderful music over on her Patreon page. Go and check her out - you won't be disappointed. Hope you ...
Kina Grannis
March 17, 2019 00:00 - 43 minutes - 20 MBKina Grannis is an amazing singer, insane songwriter and a YouTuber! Holy hell, I love this woman. Endlessly. I stumbled across her YouTube videos when I was 18 and immediately became obsessed. I tweeted her. I covered her songs. I essentially harassed her until she liked me enough to take a chance on me and go away on a songwriting retreat in New York. We've become real life friends and it makes me so happy. She has over 1.4 million YouTube subscribers and has over 244 MILLION video views....

If you've not heard her sing yet, I highly recommend you get yourself over to YouTube right after this interview and watch her. She's like no one I've ever come across. When she sings, the entire room and everything in it stops to listen to her... I'm not even joking. I've seen it with my own eyes! Today we dive into how Mree found her voice, inner-confidence and style. We also tackle d...
