    Steve's Mix Tapes #051 (Ethan Miller)

    My guest mixer this week is Ethan Miller Ethan has played in Comets on Fire, Feral Ohms, Heron Oblivion and Howlin’ Rain. Last year, he teamed up with Bill Orcutt and Steve Shelley to record the Orcutt Shelley Miller album - my number 2 album of 2025 (the #1 being this). And yes, he's yet another that Steve Shelley put me in touch with - so thanks once again to Steve for providing me another great guest!

    Steve's Mix Tapes #050 (Susan Pringle)

    My guest mixer this week is Susan Pringle Given that Christmas is a time for family, it seemed fitting that this episode should feature my mum. She turned 80 this year but you'd never know it. She was a little nervous about doing it - especially as we had to do the interview twice, my laptop having mangled the first attempt! But I think she did a fine job, and it was a great trip down memory lane for me...

    Steve's Mix Tapes #049 (William Benton)

    My guest mixer this week is William Benton William is yet another guest that Steve Shelley was kind enough to put me in touch with. He is the historian and tour guide for the infamous Chelsea Hotel, as well being the singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist with Cat Casual & the Final Word.

    Steve's Mix Tapes #048 (Cory Plump)

    My guest mixer this week is Cory Plump Like Brian Turner last week, Cory is someone that Steve Shelley was kind enough to put me in touch with. He has played in bands such as When Dinosaurs Ruled The Earth, Spray Paint and Winged Wheel and also owns the live music bar Tubby’s in Kingston NY. It's becoming clear that Steve clearly has good taste in mixers, as Cory was a great guest and picked an excellent playlist.

    Steve's Mix Tapes #047 (Brian Turner)

    My guest mixer this week is Brian Turner Brian is one of several upcoming guests that Steve Shelley was kind enough to put me in touch with. He is the station manager of East Village Radio, was a regular on WMFU and is a good friend of previous guest Eleni Poulou (with whom he recently put out a show on Cashmere Radio). He's also been in the bands The Mad Scene, Äss, and Jowe Head & The Celestial Choir. Not only is he a top bloke, he picked a cracking playlist...

    Steve's Mix Tapes #045 (Andy Gillespie)

    My guest mixer this week is Andy Gillespie I have known Andy - a fellow Wedding Present fan - for the best part of 20 years, online. But this was the first time we'd ever met face to face (albeit via Zoom).  Originally from Middleton, Manchester, Andy has for many years lived in Simi Valley, California. As well as being on good terms with previous guests David Gedge and Terry de Castro, we also get to hear about the time he played pool with Mark E Smith and Eleni...
