This weeks chat gets deep, emotional, joyful and funny! This week I'm chatting with one of my musical hero's, Singer Songwriter Luke Concannon from Nizlopi. Luke and his double bass playing/beat-boxing partner in crime, John Parker had a UK Number hit in 2005 with JCB Song, Luke talks candidly about how the press set them up as one-hit wonders in-spite of their obvious talent and huge wealth of incredible, thought provoking, socially conscious material. We chat about the impact their music had on me personally, some of the AMAZING support acts Nizlopi had over the years (Newton Faulkner, Foy Vance, ED SHEERAN, yeah you read that right!) Luke's subsequent solo career, the chances of putting the band back together, the best heckle he's ever received and he not only picks six classic tracks for his Mixtape, he even performs one of them for us. One not to be missed. www.lukeconcannon.com https://www.youtube.com/@UCMEMw2UCz1LzaPJ5rOcuTLA https://www.youtube.com/@UC49iefQrn1RkaeavOCId4Mg www.themixtapepodcast.com #nizlopi #sociallyconciousmusic #johnparker #lukeconcannon #foyvance #edsheeran #newtonfaulkner
