We talk to Nik Kershaw - Singer, Songwriter & Multi-instrumentalist. The 1980s gave us an endless stream of incredible UK music stars, flooding the radio with hit songs that still sound incredible to this very day. Right at the top of that hill was Nik Kershaw whose songs had the unique magic of being incredibly melodic and catchy whilst below the surface were written and constructed on a whole different level to their chart counter parts. Today Nik continues to tour, bringing his huge choruses and hooks to fans all over the world and he shares stories on this episode of touring, producing other bands and what he would have done differently if he had the choice.

We talk to Torturetwinn's Andrew Devin - New Wave, Alternative Rock Artist. Exploding from his nostalgia filled studio in Richmond, Virginia - Andrew Devin aka Torturetwinn, is creating music that evokes the feeling of driving down a desert highway across the US, windows down, carefree vibes that only perhaps a John Hughes movie has been able to do in the past. We chat about his journey to this point and how giving up pretty much everything to allow himself to devote his whole life to music is beginning to result in the best decision he could ever make.
