Phil Taggart’s Slacker Podcast

By Phil Taggart’s Slacker Podcast

Hello Slackers! Welcome to the UK's Biggest Music Podcast. Each week, host Phil Taggart grills a new guest or band on their musical career to date with the sonic launch point being as early a demo as we can prise from their vaults. From here the conversation freewheels down a spaghetti junction of quirky anecdotes, hot takes and uncovers the journey each artist has taken to where they are today.

The Specials

Hello Slackers!I've got a 'SPECIAL' podcast for you all this week. Get it? Huh? Ok fine my pun making is that of a sub standard Hallmark card writer. This week we have a band from Coventry that could lay claim to inspiring a whole new style of British music in the 70's. They put a new spin on ska a genre of music originating from Jamaica. I've got so much joy out of The Specials music over the years so it was very special to have them bring in their early demo and shoot the breeze for an hour! If you enjoy it drop it a nice review wherever it is you listen!My new book Phil Taggart's Slacker Guide to the Music Industry is out now from www.philtaggartslacker.comThis is the perfect book for anyone you know who's releasing music and could do with a helping hand.

Mura Masa

Hello Slackers. Seasons Greetings! I hope you're all good this week. We have a wicked podcast for you this week. The UK's finest producer Mura Masa popped by the dungeon studio in Soho earlier in the year for a chat and he brought with him one of his earliest demo's. Most MC's, singers and musicians would kill to have Alex Crossan in the studio. I didn't think it appropriate to ask him to make a beat for me considering i can't sing or rap. He's an interesting dude. We took a look at the music industry through the eyes of a successful and sought after 23 year old. I really enjoyed our chat, hope you do too.Please send guest suggestions for Season 2. I just started recording them last weekBefore I forget. The Slacker Club Night is going on tour in February.

Well Slackers. I hope your conjunctivitis has cleared up since the last time you were here. It’s looking pretty good! Welcome to all the new listeners. On this podcast we play class artists’ early demos and we get a good chin wag in along the way. This week’s guest is Gary Lightbody from Snow Patrol. He’s legit seen it all in the world of music and has traversed the highs and lows of everything that comes with it, which places him in a very apt position for me to badger him with questions. The version of Run he plays on the podcast was dug out of one of the band's attics and hasn’t been heard before so should be special for the Snow Patrol fan boys and girls.Please give the podcast a little rating or a review if you enjoy it.This Friday (16th Nov 2018) the Slacker Live Music Night will be at Portrush at the Atlantic Sessions on Northern Ireland.

She brought in an early demo of her track 'Dickhead' which I don't think has been heard anywhere before, so there's a treat for the mega Kate Nash fans.

Hello Slackers! The third episode of the Slacker Podcast is upon us.

I'm really thankful, yiz are awful sound.On this weeks episode we have Dan from Bastille. He was the first person i approached (on a packed train) to be on this podcast, before it had a name or a premise. He brought himself into the fetish dungeon studio in Soho armed with a banana and a herbal tea and we talked about converted porn studios, Justin Bieber, straddling music genres, throwing warm liquid at festivals and lots of other bits and pieces. Dan also brought with him an early version of a song called 'Alchemy' which really gives you a sense of where Bastille was born from.This podcast is for you all, specifically the artists and bands toiling with the complexities of the music industry.If you have any questions or want to follow me on social media it's @philytaggart (Instagram + Twitter)Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/phil-taggarts-slacker-podcast.
