Loose Joints Podcast: Colm Mac Athlaoich
Loose Joints is a podcast where we talk to a guest and play music they like new and old. True to the name, the podcast features a loose collection of tunes, tied together by very little logic, just like our chats. Nialler9 and Sally Cinnamon are your hosts.
For our twelfth podcast, and our first for series 2, we are joined by the artist Colm Mac Athlaoich. Colm is based in Madrid and is a painter, illustrator, jazz lover and former player with Snow Patrol and Ham Sandwich. Check out his work.
Also available in Stitcher, PocketCasts and TuneIn.
