    BIAS (20261006)

    In this high‑octane, riff‑packed episode, Peggy‑Sue sits down with Ian, drummer and one‑fifth of the Wiltshire rock band BIAS — proudly known as the home of dustbin rock. BIAS blend punk, classic rock, heavy rock, goth and modern alternative into one gloriously chaotic, genre‑crashing sound. Their sets are loud, raw, unpredictable and full of attitude — the kind of music that feels like a wild rummage through decades of rock history, all thrown together with a grin and a power‑chord. In this episode, Ian talks about the band’s origins, their influences, their energy, and what makes “dustbin rock” such a fun, fearless identity. Peggy‑Sue also plays tracks from their album “Scream Into The Silence” giving listeners a taste of BIAS’s gritty, eclectic, full‑throttle style. If you love rock that doesn’t follow the rules — and musicians who embrace the chaos — this episode is an absolute blast.

    JP Oldfield (20260922)

    In this darkly cinematic and deeply compelling episode, Peggy‑Sue welcomes JP Oldfield, a Wiltshire‑based independent singer‑songwriter whose music blends Southern Gothic, dark folk, Americana and blues into a haunting, roots‑rich sound. With his deep baritone voice, resonator guitar and signature suitcase bass drum, JP crafts raw, atmospheric songs built around storytelling, unusual instrumentation and a fascination with the shadowy corners of human experience. Inspired by artists like Nick Cave, Tom Waits, Johnny Cash and Colter Wall, JP’s work inhabits a world of ghosts, sinners, redemption, moral ambiguity and myth. His unconventional guitar style — shaped as a self‑taught musician — uses hybrid picking, unusual tunings and textured playing to create a sound that feels both intimate and cinematic. In this episode, Peggy‑Sue and JP dive into his ambitious new multimedia concept EP, Saltwater Gospel — inspired by dark maritime folklore, mythology and The Rime of the Ancient Mariner. The EP follows a Ferryman trapped between life and death, exploring grief, vengeance, religious hypocrisy, catastrophe and acceptance. Alongside the music, JP created the artwork and mythology himself, making Saltwater Gospel a complete creative world. Listeners will hear exclusive plays from the EP, offering a first glimpse into this immersive, atmospheric project. If you love roots music with depth, storytelling, and a voice that feels carved from the earth itself, this episode is unmissable.
