On this week’s podcast episode, Andrea and Niall are talking Coachella, the continuing reaction to Fontaines DC, Anderson Paak in review and Luke talks to Maverick Sabre backstage at his recent Dublin gig. We also talk *SPOILERS* Game of Thrones *SPOILERS* at the end.
The rundown:
- While we have already discussed Fontaines DC’s debut album with Pillow Queens two weeks ago, we look at the reaction to the album worldwide and the reaction to the critics locally, as the album vies for a spot in the UK album charts.
- Coachella – a festival for the Youtube generation means we can review the events from Indio Valley from our own homes. Billie Eilish, Guava Island – Childish Gambino’s curio film with Rihanna, Tame Impala and Blackpink are up for commentary.
- Bandcamp are going to start offering a vinyl service.
- Album of the week: Anderson .Paak – Ventura.
- Tracks of the week from Beck, Just Mustard, Kevin Abstract and Courtney Barnett
- Maverick Sabre in conversation with Luke Sharkey
- A surprise announcement from Beyoncé has Andrea excirah.
- Closing song: Elma Orkestra and Ryan Vail – Borders
