Cerys from Dead Pop Mag Society - shares Wildpaths musings with OTHP
Cerys Hubbard is a music journalist & Self proclaimed music history nerd based in Norwich, who likes to think her passion for all things rock n roll stemmed from the moment her parents decided to name her after Cerys Matthews. She grew up in the city listening to anything she could get whilst studying Music Marketing Media & Communications at BIMM Brighton. She founded Dead Pop Mag Society, a blog aiming to bring the fun and chaos of 80's and 90's music mags like Smash Hits to a new audience which so far has seen her have appearances on BBC Norfolk, BBC Leicester and most recently at Wild Paths festival interviewing some of the most exciting up and coming acts on the scene.When she's not doing this, she's working at Norwich Arts Centre, gallivanting about the city putting up posters and handing out brochures, pulling pints. selling merch and rabbiting on about her favorite bands to all the 6 radio dads that come her way.

Tex Kennedy - One of the fine City's favourite sons
This week - I got to sit down for a pint with Matt “tex” Kennedy, 1/5th of the well oiled machine that is floral image, known city wide as the K. O. B (king of bass) for his fast attack ,unfathomable rhythm and onstage antics. Quoted by Spide Writer “Kennedy is the Iggy Pop of bass guitar”.In amongst all the chaos of touring and living a life as normal as a free wheeling freak can, He focuses a lot of time on his own project Black Magick Caravan. A project birthed from the grief of losing grandparents and finding a way to channel grief into songs and musical freakouts.Black Magick caravan is a mystical whimsy psych folk project toying with the feelings of paranoia, anxiety and finding the light at the end of the tunnel with themes of the occult, tarot, dreams. Flourish, the first song from black Magick caravans album titled “upon the dying flowers” is set to be released this autumn into winter.

Takeda - The ones to watch
On the Huh caught up with front man Josh Harrison backstage at the Waterfront after their soundcheck and ahead of a home town album launch show to celebrate the release of their new album In Venus train.Thematically In Venus Train channels mystical figures from folk-lore and biblical metaphors, writing songs about obsession, love and grieving a past life. The album is a musically rich, at times intricate and thoughtful, at others explosive and intense journey through the bands blend of melancholic, organic folk and sprawling, fuzzy alternative -rock. Drawing influence in equal measure from British Folk revivalists Fairport convention and alt-metal icons Tool, the album fuses melodic and emotional sensibility of folk with the noise and fuzzed guitar tones of grunge, ultimately making music that sounds something like if Nick drake joined Pile.Don't forget to check out the ever evolving Spotify playlist of Norwich bands material compiled by pod producer Reuben Andrews called La musique de Norwich.chin chin

KiraKira - Here, there and everywhere...
This week I'm joined for a chat by the brilliant KiraKira. In her own words Kira is a Multi-instrumental singer songwriter grown in Norwich. In the space between bedroom pop heart-ache and white-rabbit indie dreams, she finds beauty in the drone of the mundane and floats in the idyll of ambience.Taking a heart-bearing lyrical approach to music in the way that you may see in the realms of Samia, Phoebe Bridges or Beabadoobee and watering her recordings with reverb and soft pads, KiraKira nurtures guitar music that feels as though plants could grow to it. As she leaves adolescence, soft-grunge sensibilities become more present drifting in an ocean of distortion and new found reflectivity.We'll be back soon with a few more episodes in the pipeline - but in the meantime..
