It’s a new year, but the same old us. Andrea and Niall kick off 2022 (yes, we did a bonus episode last week but the duo are back) with a sense of rejuvenation and a bag of songs and albums to enthuse about.
We are talking albums from Bill Fay, Mitski, Silverbacks and an old 1988 favourite from Womack & Womack. There are songs from Boy Harsher, Last Apollo, Soichi Terada, Pillow Queens, Earl Sweatshirt, The Weather Station and the return of Father John Misty is up for discussion.
Plus, the vague return of Reasons To Be Cheerful, and book, film and TV recommends.
It’s the Nialler9 Podcast 2022 edition!
