Ramblings from James and Harry, your favourite two groove merchants, giving their thoughts on music, life, gear and whatever else comes to mind

    James shares EXCLUSIVE Jams of new songs!

    Want a sneak peak of some new Toucan Echo songs before they are released? Or wondered what goes on at a Toucan Echo practice session? Well now you can find out! See if you dug into our archives (and you'd have to dig because we buried them deep under the Amazon river), you'd find a BEAK-TON of demos, jams, performances and other things that James and Harry cook up, but never release to the world. That cuz we record all our practices and usually go through a few versions of songs before they're ready to record. Heck, given we never play a song the same way twice live, imagine what we're like behind closed doors, ha! Anyway, I (James, hello) wanted to do an experiment by using the podcast to share sneaky behind the scenes looks, like demos and jams we do in the practice room. Thought it might be fun. And gave me a flash back to my student radio days. Here you go! Let me know if you enjoyed by emailing james@toucanecho.com or DM us on our socials! :)
