    Bad Boys Special - Long Way to the Top with Shane Howard - Live on the Long Lunch

    While The Bad Boys Podcast is on a break, enjoy this special interview with Shane Howard from Goanna. This week on my show The Long Lunch, I had the privilege of being joined in the studio by Shane Howard of Goanna and his daughter Niamh. A champion of environmental and indigenous issues, Shane was in town to share an intimate acoustic concert. As a prelude, he shared a few songs including the latest single takayna. Although it was being broadcast across the North East of Tasmania, our little chat and songs felt like a mini concert performed just for me, because that is how Shane makes you feel as he draws you in with his stories and his passion for this beautiful land. From the beginnings with Razor’s Edge and Solid Rock to his brand new single takayna, enjoy this special Long Way to the Top with Shane Howard and Niamh.
