Season 8 Episode 5: Gigs, imitation and creativity (Feat. Bloom, Thursday, Poppy and more)Matt and James sit down to chat more nonsense about alternative music and other random things.After a dodgy start which caused discussion over whether or not we should re record the intro (we don’t….obvs) and an instant random thought which creates at least 5 minutes of non music related chat, we get back on track and discuss our experience at a recent gig, watching the Bloom, Callous Daoboys, Thursday and Silverstein. Matt then has a game for James which leads to some in depth chat about girl of the moment, Poppy. As we look at Poppy’s career to date and discuss the crazy journey that she has been on to get her to where she is today.We also have an update on our new BAND PROJECT, as James brings to the table some ideas and we invite you, the listener, to get involved.Drop us a message and let us know your thoughts???Enjoy.EMO DAD PLAYLIST PLAYLIST HERE.———————————————Click 'Follow', PLEASE RATE US and share our podcast with your friends.Website is here.Instagram: @emodadpodcastTikTok: @emo.dad.podcastTipjar - If you've enjoyed listening to the Emo Dad Podcast and would like to leave us a little tip towards keeping the Emo Dad lights on, then we will love you forever.
