Jeanie, Gracie and Heide of Folk Bitch Trio joined us before their show at The Lexington in London. They told us about all their old jobs - Nando's, the speakeasy above a brothel, cinema, metal record store; celebrity spots - Keanu Reeves, Ralph Fiennes, Bradley Cooper, Arthur Darvill; and how Jeanie quit her job earlier that day.
Now Would Be A Good Time is their debut album. Get swept up in its floating melodies and catch them on tour: https://www.folkbitchtrio.com/

Matt Berninger (The National) - "Being with the audience brought me out of a serious depression"
Matt Berninger's excellent second solo album Get Sunk follows a slow exit from a serious depression where he couldn't get out of bed. Written on baseballs, deconstructed bedposts and anything else he could write lyrics on, the National singer writes songs like he's painting a picture. Once a graphic designer during the dot-com bubble in New York, he was going to formative gigs by The Strokes, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, TV on the Radio and The Walkmen. We hear about the profound influence Guided by Voices and Pavement had on his style, and how he has good ideas 51% of the time. Get Sunk is out now. Filmed at The Social, London.

Sydney Minsky Sargeant - "We need to be careful in not making music exclusive"
Working Men's Club's Sydney Minsky Sargeant puts out his debut album Lunga this Friday. The album was written around the track 'Lisboa', which while written years ago carries so much weight for Syd that he needed to eventually get it out his system. The whole album is ace, and is from a more mellow direction than the harshness of WMC. Here we hear about the importance of accessible music in Britain, small town gentrification and the strong foundations of working at a cafe. Photo: Max Miechowski

Field Music - "Take control of your destiny... form a Doors tribute band"
Famed for starting a Doors covers band to supplement income performing their own music, Field Music's David Brewis says it shouldn't come as a surprise. Despite sharing rehearsal spaces with 2000's mainstream indie bands The Futureheads and Maximo Park, the Brewis brothers had no interest in pleasing anyone else; only making music for themselves. Coming up to 20 years since their debut album, the Sunderland trio have nearly always done everything in-house, from self producing albums to driving themselves on tour. David has put his high level maths ability to good use on tour balance sheets while his brother Peter took what he learned working at youth centres to task in their band life. They play in London, Leeds and Sunderland to celebrate their anniversary in November, find more info and tickets at https://field-music.co.uk/

Stop & Chat: Ryan Davis (Roadhouse Band)
This guy writes SONGS. If you're reading this and you haven't heard Ryan Davis & the Roadhouse Band's latest album New Threats From The Soul, stop what you're doing and take it for a long walk. If you end up coming back to listen to this, you'll hear about his time working at the influential Drag City Records, a laundry list of odd jobs, not insuring Galaxie 500's broken gear and the 17 years of running his own label, Sophomore Lounge.
