Always a great listen

I would gladly go to any gig arranged in these podcasts. A real spread of different approaches, but always a great mix of chat and laughs. It’s even introduced me to a lot of great music!

Great, funny, and interesting podcast!

Matt Hoss invites lovely people to describe their dream music festival. The episodes are really interesting and ridiculously silly. I can’t wait for more episodes to arrive!
