EP20 - Luke Haines of The Auteurs

In the final episode of series 1 George and Paul come face to face with the man many people credit with creating the Britpop sound, Luke Haines of The Auteurs. Luke was one of the most interesting and vocal personalities of scene and laid it all out in his book 'Bad Vibes: Britpop and My Part in Its Downfall'. 

The boys get into that, who Luke still sees on occasions from the Britpop days, and his current solo projects.

Have you ever wondered what Jarvis Cocker has on his tour rider? Or what aftershave Liam Gallagher wears? Or how the boys from Supergrass grew such impressive sideburns at such a young age?

Stuff like this is all that comedians George Lewis and Paul McCaffrey ever think about.

And this podcast will let them find out the answers to these and hundreds more of their dumb questions about the greatest time in music history.

In each episode, George (winner of Celebrity Mastermind, answering questions on Oasis) and Paul (knows twice as much about Britpop as George) will be joined by a guest who will chat about their experience of the Britpop movement.

They will uncover stories you’ve never heard before, discuss niche trivia and revel in the nostalgia of a time when we all thought Tony Blair, the England football team and minidiscs all had great futures ahead of them.
