Welcome to season two of Making Conversation with me, Grant Brydon. I’ve been sitting down with some of my favourite artists and thinkers to discuss creativity and life, for this fortnightly podcast. I’m thankful to have some incredible guests lined up to talk to in the next few months, and am looking forward to sharing these interviews.
For this episode I spoke to musical adventurer Biig Piig, as she was preparing for the release of her debut mixtape Bubblegum.
At the end of last year the nomadic artist joined me at Levi’s Haus of Strauss to discuss moving into a new home, making music that connects with humanity, and navigating chaos in an upside down world.

Episode 04: Mireille Harper
For this episode I spoke to my friend Mireille Harper, editorial director, writer, authenticity reader, communications consultant and the editor of my own book Life Lessons from Hip-Hop.
She recently joined me at Levi’s Haus of Strauss in London to talk about going viral with her Instagram post “10 Steps To Non-Optical Allyship” (https://www.instagram.com/p/CA04VKDAyjb/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link) in 2020, the role of authenticity reading, how words can be harmful and working towards a more diverse publishing industry.

Episode 03: ELIZA
Welcome to season two of Making Conversation with me, Grant Brydon. I’ve been sitting down with some of my favourite artists and thinkers to discuss creativity and life, for this fortnightly podcast.
For this episode I spoke to ELIZA, the North London musician behind A Sky Without Stars, an immersive slow-burning soul album that she wrote during the pandemic and shared with us earlier this year.
ELIZA recently joined me at Levi’s Haus of Strauss in London to talk about music as a vessel for human connection, the paradox of creativity and commerce, and how she’s finding ways to reconnect with nature.
