Ears to the Skies Episode One

We’re proud to present the first episode of Ears to the Skies. In this week’s show, we have four album reviews, and a special feature from our friend Jacob Williams, who takes a look at a classic album from years gone by.

Unfortunately, because we want you to hear this as soon as possible we have yet to sort out web hosting, so for the time being the first episode is available to download here. We appreciate this is not ideal, but we are working to fix this as within the very near future.

This week’s mass debate focuses around the music festival, asking whether there are too many, whether they are too expensive and whether the quality of music festivals is gradually sinking to a weekend of debauchery you wouldn’t be too hard pressed to find in a lawless world.

Finally, we sat down with burgeoning punk folk artist Frank Turner, who spoke to us about his new album ‘Love, Ire and Song’, his previous band ‘Million Dead’ and the trials and tribulations of being a solo artist on tour.

We hope you enjoy the show, and despite some technical niggles we thoroughly enjoyed putting it together. Remember to get in touch if you have something to say to us! We can be reached by email at earstotheskies(at)googlemail.com.

Thanks,

The Ears to the Skies Team
