    037: Who is Nirosta Steel, really? | Hey You Listen to This

    Find more on ⁠⁠⁠⁠Hey You Listen to This⁠⁠⁠⁠. Nirosta Steel is the project of Steven Hall, a Scottish-born musician who until the release of his archival record My Skyscraper, remained a totally obscure member of the 1980s New York underground arts scene. The record, which spans more than 40 years of work, has been met with extraordinary praise from critics and audiences alike. I caught up with Steven in August to chat about creativity, Arthur Russell and his sudden prominence in the public eye.

    032: It Goes On: Westside Cowboy and the best debut album of 2026 | Hey You Listen to This

    More music you've never heard on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Hey You Listen to This⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. Hailing from Manchester, Westside Cowboy are quickly becoming one of the biggest bands in Britain. Dual lead vocals underscored by a punk sensibility and Americana twang, all driven by a restless percussive momentum. This frenetic nature of their punkier work is beautifully balanced by the softer moments in their catalogue, echoing the scope of bands like Black Country New Road or Honeyglaze. I sat down with Aoife and Reuben in Oslo after their set at Øyafestivalen. Intro/outro music:Jazz by Pulsebox under Creative Commons.https://creativecommons.org/licenses/...
