Big Smoke Music Weekly - S5E9 - Wunderhorse & the end of festival season

Season 5, Episode 9,   Sep 11, 2022, 08:23 AM

And here it is…the last festival episode of season 5!

Luke Scanlan brings you reviews from 2 different festivals, along with a huge BigSmoke:InFocus interview.

After seeing festival season come to an end, he takes a look at Tame Impala’s highly anticipated headline slot at All Points East. Find out how that went down, and how Luke ended up in the sound tent…

He also  gives a full review of Victorious Festival with the likes of Self Esteem, Paolo Nutini and more on the bill. We’ll learn all about the Southsea weekender, where Luke managed to spend over £20 on pick & mix.

This week’s InFocus interview is with the superb Jacob Slater, frontman of Wunderhorse. Jacob opens up on the story behind breakout track ‘Teal’, if that riff from ‘Leader of The Pack’ is really inspired by Lynyrd Skynyrd or Kurt Vile and we find out how he came to work under Danny Boyle, as Sex Pistol drummer Paul Cook in Disney’s Pistol series.

Plus we hear from our reporter George Sexton-Kerr, who headed down to Field Day to find out if Kraftwerk, Chemical Brothers & co brought good energy to London town. 

Wrapping things up, we have a CLoseUp 60 Seconds interview with Indie-pop delights - hailing from sunny Dunfermline - is Dancing on Tables
