Big Smoke Music Weekly - S3E8 - Novelty Island, HONGZA, GURU

Season 3, Episode 8,   Aug 07, 2020, 09:59 AM

HELLO HELLO!

2020 is the year that is disappearing before our very eyes...so too is our Weekly title!

Luke and Dave are getting you back in their good books with this tasty BigSmoke:InFocus feast as they pick 3 artists as part of this 'Ones To Watch' special.

They come in the form of the brilliant new solo project from Sam Hong (HONGZA). He opens up to us about the excitement of going it alone and finally getting the freedom to explore and create a sound true to himself. 

Tom McConnell of Novelty Island stops by as we chat about the alternative world he has created - the perfect escape from the weird limbo of this post-lockdown world.

Finally....Tom Cherrill of Brighton Punk outfit GURU drops by to tell us how £5 bargain Burberry jumpers were part of the story behind the band's formation.

More than enough to make it up to you! All this, plus another edition of Dave's Music News.

Enjoy!
