About Don't Give Up Your Day Job - a local musicians guide
Is your local music scene a microcosm of the global music scene at large? What are the pitfalls, trials, tribulations and triumphs of being a DIY musician? I'm a musician from Lowestoft, Suffolk in the UK and in these podcasts I'll be talking to members of my local music scene in order to find out what goes on (if anything) and how to get by.
In the final episode of the season I had the total privilege of chatting to Mille Manders of 'Millie Manders and The Shutup' about all things music. Norwich resident Millie very generously shares her experience of the industry and talks about the hard work, the toil, the rewards and the sheer bliss of being a DIY musician. Millie is a first class musician and has been ploughing a deep furrow into the heart of the music scene with her high-octane, fierce sound that's bursting with attitude.

Episode 23 - Jazz, Cruise ships and the BBC
A local music scene is full of surprises and excellent discoveries if you just scratch the surface. Just like that time I bumped into a superb Jazz guitarist at a local community gig who also turned out to be a retired producer for the BBC, a touring cruise ship regular and, amongst many other things, Ed Sheeran's former guitar teacher! I was beyond excited to talk to Keith Krykant who lives just round the corner from me here in Lowestoft, UK and very generously gave up his evening to come and have a chat with me in my home studio. Keith is the most humble musician I have ever met despite his huge musical career and it was a total joy to talk to someone who has been there and back!
