The Line-Up with Shaun Keaveny

Who would play at your dream festival? Shaun Keaveny's got a lifetime of festival moments (well, the ones he can remember) to draw on as each episode he guides a music-loving guest to share their 5 favourite acts to see on stage in a field somewhere. From the first band waking up your senses to that emotional sunset slot and the all-important headliner. Other fantasy festival essentials will be covered too, from choice snacks to tent skills (ha! Celebrities pitching their own tents? No chance...) and of course, are we gonna need a fancy toilet? The Line-Up with Shaun Keaveny is brought to you by Sony Music Commercial Group UK and is produced by Natalie Jamieson for Cup & Nuzzle.

  1. Simon Pegg – Film Icons, Formative Horror & Binton Blues

    11/07/2023

    Simon Pegg – Film Icons, Formative Horror & Binton Blues

    Pop culture hero to many, Simon Pegg reveals his music and film heroes, starting with The Clangers, that lesser-known gateway drug to Star Wars. From growing up in a music shop, to working with Tom Cruise, Steven Spielberg and emailing Dave Grohl about horror comedy, Simon’s fantasy festival offers so many treats! On screen he may be enabling death-defying stunts in Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part One, but off screen it’s all about sharing a love of horror films with his daughter, and pinch-me moments like being asked by Paul Simon for feedback on his latest album.

    18/01/2023

    Gaz Coombes – Confidence, Tiny Bread & Death Row Hamburger

    From Supergrass to solo, singer-songwriter Gaz Coombes steers us through the musical moments that shaped his sound, from his early childhood in San Francisco to teenage antics in the Oxfordshire countryside. There’s the time his voice broke on stage, to working with Jim Henson’s Muppets and finding a renewed confidence post-Britpop. And watch this space, Shaun may have found himself a new band to join… fender.com/TheLineUp Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

    11/01/2023

    Joe Cornish – Ghosts, Infinite Toilets & Stephen/Steven

    From writing for Steven Spielberg, to directing ghosts for Netflix, and broadcasting with his mate Adam Buxton (Stephen!), Joe Cornish knows a thing or two about creating something fantastical. So, he’s perfectly at home with Shaun as they transplant a building Wizard-of-Oz-style to Japan for Joe’s fantasy festival. Films and music collide, along with Joe’s latest TV creation, Lockwood & Co, in this musical mash-up that gives birth to your two new potentially fave bands - Infinite Toilets and Rivers of Piss. fender.com/TheLineUp Learn more about your ad choices.

  4. Joe Lycett – Beckham Anxiety, Being Nice & Hating Festivals

    14/12/2022

    Joe Lycett – Beckham Anxiety, Being Nice & Hating Festivals

    Alongside his festival choices, Joe Lycett breaks down what it was really like to pretend to the world that he would shred ten-thousand pounds unless David Beckham stepped away from his support of Qatar, where homosexual activity is illegal. Plus, why a festival field is not a natural environment for Joe, the unexpected joy of EDM and the sheer foodie delight of turning a Yorkshire pudding into a sandwich. fender.com/TheLineUp Learn more about your ad choices.

  5. Rag’n’Bone Man – Bacon, Rum & The Power of No

    07/12/2022

    Rag’n’Bone Man – Bacon, Rum & The Power of No

    Turns out Rag’n’Bone Man – aka Rory Graham – is just as likely to be serving bacon baps at his kids’ rugby club, as he is headlining arenas. He’s also a dab hand at making pasties and killer pop choruses, as he shares a life-long appreciation for folk and americana, hip-hop and soul music. He’s also got some sage advice for setting social boundaries, and when it’s OK to not say sorry. fender.com/TheLineUp Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

  6. Johnny Marr (Part 1) – Babysitters, Blues & Transcendence

    30/11/2022

    Johnny Marr (Part 1) – Babysitters, Blues & Transcendence

    From forming The Smiths, to working with The The, Pet Shop Boys, Modest Mouse, Electronic, The Cribs, not to mention his solo work, sure, Johnny Marr is a bit talented. Musically transfixed from an early age, so much so that his mum sometimes used department store guitar areas as an ad hoc babysitting service (different times, best intentions), that curiosity remains happily intact. You can’t edit an in-depth chat about transcendence either, so we haven’t, we’ve just taken the lead from his aptly named latest album to split our Series 4 comeback into two parts. You’re welcome!  fender.com/TheLineUp Johnny Marr's new double album, Fever Dreams Pts 1-4, is out now.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

    30/11/2022

    Johnny Marr (Part 2) – Band Break-Ups, Bouncing Back & Eddie Vedder

    Good people attract more good people, as Johnny delves into how Eddie Vedder, Alicia Keys and Chrissie Hynde have all helped shape his life over the years. From seminal band break-ups to musical reinventions and remaining interested in doing something new. fender.com/TheLineUp Johnny Marr's new double album, Fever Dreams Pts 1-4, is out now.
