So, y’all know I’m a big fan of Solar Bears – and I was delighted to get to interview John from the band for last week’s show. In case you not familiar with them, Solar Bears are a Dublin-Wicklow based band and fans of Tangerine Dream, Bibio, Cocteau Twins and Russian cult movies will adore them. They have a fantastic EP (Inner Sunshine), which you can stream here, and an amazing album, (She Was Coloured In) coming out on Planet Mu records soon – you can stream the album here. I’ll be playing songs from both in the coming months, and you might recognise some of the songs on the EP from previous shows.
Here’s the show in its entirety – the interview is at the beginning. We met in the busy Library Bar in the Central Hotel, so excuse the background noise!
