The New Music Podcast brings you the best in unsigned music.

We like to change our format up a bit - sometimes we'll speak to musicians and find out about the music they write, other times we let artists speak to each other with no major format.

Either way you get to hear some gold from some incredible musicians.

Putting the Lad into Ballad, it's Jack Bowden ladies & gentlemen! What a star Jack is. He was in just a few short weeks back recording a session and during one recording we just chatted away for around 45 minutes before even getting to the recording. So it was inevitable that he'd be back in the studio soon for a Podcast.

Join us as we delve into the mind of an 11-year-old songwriter - I think it's fair to say he's come a long way with his talent - and go through four of his current tracks.

Anyhoo, welcome along to episode number twenty one of The New Music Podcast. It was lovely to welcome Callum from The Pinocchios back into the studio, alongside band manager James. These guys went down extremely well when their session vids were released last year and it was a real pleasure delving deeper into their music and finding out the meaning behind their songs.

Originally Recorded February 5th 2018

We made it to double digits guys. This is a landmark moment in the life of our little Podcast. To mark the occasion we had one of 2017's most popular artists join us around the microphones.

George Stocken came back in to discuss the very three tracks he recorded with us last year, including 2017 single most viewed video - Golden Sands.

As this was the first Podcast to include only three songs, we worried about the runtime - consequently we ended up going off on more tangents than you can shake a stick at.

Tuck in for this almost-hour-long episode. And don't forget to give us those rating on the iTunes store :-)
