This podcast covers music, culture and art happening in around Manchester. Taken from the radio show "Crazy Classic Live" broadcast every Friday 4-5pm.
In this episode, I caught up with the creators of slow fashion brand; Queens of Archive via an ever-zealous Zoom call for a spell. They offered a fresh perspective on Manchester, rock-inspiration and how to craft a sustainable brand to serve an environmentally conscious community. Their designs and dresses drape almost every corner of a rock'n'roll instant Instagram algorithm. We delve into a founding partnership and preened photoshoot quality in some of Manchesters' best spots, amidst a tricky tour bus before a flourishing Moth Club moment.
The sounds of the city have long been the staple of soundtracks and starring inspiration for brooding underground stars - Both of the past and presently. Finding a balance between sumptuous, strong individual sound can be hard; particularly when a stripped back vocal performance is not only your style but your reality as a creator. For Solo Artist, Megan Rutherford, finding the time to develop has recently brought her home to Kent in search of much needed experimentation and natural inspiration. With dreams of return to the city and an ever defining album concept in the making, What can we expect from her makings and musings? In the wake of venue closures and UK music uncertainty, new sounds are developing and changing from bedrooms and breaking into the live stream.
