Broadcast Date – June 5, 2024
Our chats will be just that very conversational, not entirely sensible and with any luck totally enjoyable and in the case of today’s guests – completely worth the wait! I won’t pretend it was an easy feat connecting – what with their just released album HOME and their steady stream of live dates to promote it. A busy schedule they’d certainly known well from their days with the band Còig, but with this their first duo project it’s fair to say they’re having the time of their lives and we’ll talk about all of it. From the serendipitous stories behind the songs to working with their much adored and award-winning producer Dave Gunning. And oh my goodness, will there be love – from their first meeting, to their many fantastic shows to their wonderfully romantic wedding too! Plus we’ll play a very special round of 1st Things First and naturally spin as much of their marvellous music as we can within the hour. So with all that ahead we best get to it. Here’s my extended online conversation with Rachel Davis and Darren McMullen. (you’ll find the player at the bottom of this post)
