Shed Session 35: Max Blansjaar

Shed Sessions ·

2024/05/21

The Northern Lights arrived as far south as the River Thames and left me with a sense of awe and mystery. The song birds have laid foundations for their nests in the hedgerows and the suburban garden is alive with the joys of Spring. The beautiful notes of Max Blansjaar's music find every corner of the shed like a mist on the water as it floats gently into the reeds, up and over the banks and onto the footpath. From there the glorious sounds lift high into the still golden syrup skies, kindly

Shed Session 34: Izzie Yardley

Shed Sessions ·

2024/04/16

The setting sun takes with her the warm golden rays from the shed doors like a thousand retreating ornamental metal spears. The cradling crescent moon is later pinned above the semi detached houses half way up the cold hazy ink blue western skies. While nature quietly transforms for her next scene, Izzie’s beautiful songs merge with the changes outside as Nick’s splendid double bass coaxes the night time in. Magical, mystical, beguiling, haunting, brilliant. The conversation leads us on a path via

Shed Session 33: Killer Kowalski

Shed Sessions ·

2024/04/02

Warren welcomes Simon, Tom and Alfie from the incredible Killer Kowalski into the shed to kick off Season 14. Sadly there wasn't enough space for the full band so Howard could't join them this time. The band sounds amazing as they try out the stripped back acoustic arrangements for the very first time. It's an early Spring evening, the blossom petals are drifting about and Warren thinks he's been in the Upside Down! Along with the sublime music, there's cracking conversation about thought provoking

Shed Session 32: Mount St. Helen

Shed Sessions ·

2024/03/19

Warren is joined in the shed by Aris and Francesco from Mount St. Helen. They are stripped back, leaving Ryan (drums) and Dan (bass) with the sound knowledge that they are carrying the flame proudly over to the shed for this exclusive performance and conversation. The music is otherworldly and the lyrics are lovingly carried by Aris' dreamy voice and the ethereal sounds of the pair's Stratocasters. We are gently guided into the story of a band with a bigger picture as they seamlessly glide above

Shed Session 31: The Deadbeat Apostles

Shed Sessions ·

2024/03/12

The Deadbeat Apostles grace the floorboards of the shed in a stripped back, acoustic form. Their soulful groove very much in force and ready to be shared with us all. The session is filled with love, sandwiches, crisps, New York, Bowie, Lennon, first plays, Will Young on wash up duties and an excessive music quiz. This is a history of the Deadbeats, where they've been, where they are now and what lies ahead. A beautiful journey to be a friend of the Deadbeats! You can find out more about the band

Shed Session 30: KANADIA

Shed Sessions ·

2024/02/27

Warren welcomes James and Tim into the shed for a stripped back KANADIA set. The pair are soaring with the thermals and gazing across the boggy fields and enchanted woodlands, mapping the route as we float along with them. Enveloped in pure bliss. A field mouse peaks out from the leaf litter as the notes are set free into the star spangled night skies over the Oxfordshire countryside. This band is formidable and have chosen their own dreamy path to navigate the spaces with soulful atmospheric

2024/02/20

Welcome back to the first episode of 2024. For this special occassion we recorded a Shed Session in front of an audience at The Bullingdon Cocktail Bar in Oxford with the incredibly talented Joely June. Warren guided us gently through this magical land of music and conversation. It was love from the very first chord as Joely, Evie and Phil reached out and let us peek into the mysteries of the soul."Thanks for a lovely evening my man and well done on a great show. It was particularly powerful for

Shed Session 29: ERIKA

Shed Sessions ·

2023/12/12

The rain spills from shed the roof directly onto the gravel; it coats the windows with an opaque slick that looks like the glass is melting. The droplets get heavier at intervals and shake the remaining raspberry leaves this way and that, like a dancer under strobe lights. Water streams down the leaf tips and pierce deep holes into the mud below. The sounds from outside beckon to join with the music ERIKA is creating inside. This is a stunning performance and the conversation is filled with honesty,

2023/12/05

Dolly, Bee and Ruth visited last week and performed some of their songs acoustically for us. Their enchanting creations are now infused within the fabric of the shed alongside the craftings of the bands who have shared this intriguing space before them. The band (minus Chris and Adrian on this occasion) chat about their 2023 Album The Calm and The Storm as well as the documentary of the same name. We also hear about their live performances and the inspiration behind their music. You can find out

Shed Session 27: The Bobo (part two)

Shed Sessions ·

2023/11/14

As the air outside begins to turn icy, The Bobo find themselves in the warmth of the shed nearly a year since their last Winter visit. They now have new band mates, a recording session in Maida Vale 4, a captivating TRUCK festival performance; a new knockout EP; a live performance on TV and a new album forming as well as a handful of Oxford shows. There is mystery and beauty in the music this band make. There too is a generous serving of creativity, honesty and love in what they do. It's been a

Shed Session 26: Flamingo

Shed Sessions ·

2023/10/24

The rains have come and the stepping stones are small islands on the way to the sanctuary of the shed at the end of the garden. Lavinia’s songs weave an harmonious embrace around the wet and cold as Warren drifts off, spellbound. We find out more about the treasure of an album that is Komorebi. Released in 2020 at a time of uncertainty and change, it is taking on a beautiful journey of its own and safely into Warren’s top 5! Thank you for listening.

Ian and Warren talk Shed Sessions

Shed Sessions ·

2023/10/17

Ian and Warren realised that they haven’t had a chat in a while because they’re always busy doing Shed Sessions with bands. So they got together and enjoyed a much needed conversation about supermarkets, music, our favourite Shed Sessions moments, “What’s in My Bag” recommendations and of course the weather. You can listen to their reflections in the new bonus podcast episode via the link in the bio. Thank you all for your support, it enriches local music.

2023/09/26

Pick up a pair of Snakeskin Cowboy boots from the Trading Post store. Jump into a dusty faded blue 50s Chevy truck and take a long cruise through the California deserts. Drive along the lonely highway and stop in at a motel with a swimming pool, palm trees and scorpions. There's a band playing out back. The hot wind picks up and swirls dirt around Sarah's keyboard as the notes skate along the mirage beyond the palms. Matt's tremolo shifts and bends time as the crows nod casually from

2023/09/19

Ripper circles high above the shed. The tip of her right wing is torn but this doesn't affect the majesty of her high level soaring. She shares the same airspace with another two Red Kites. Beautiful melodies flow out of the open windows and up into the cool evening air. The spellbinding sounds mingle with the birds as they mock the airplanes with their natural mastery of flight above the Thames Valley, Oxford city and the suburbs. Warren is lifted up high with Brian, Jon and Oli as they play three

Shed Session 23: Jack Cade

Shed Sessions ·

2023/09/12

In this session we hear the the most amazing voice and guitar playing by Jack Cade. The storytelling moves between the songs like a low mist twisting and climbing between Oxford's spires on a late summer morning. The sun burns away the suspended droplets of water and reveals a clear, hot day. Jack is on his way from Brighton and listening to music as he drives. He arrives at the shed and is ready to share a very special evening with Warren and Ian. As the sun sets, the blues and indigoes wash the

The summer is in full bloom, the hazelnuts are hanging from the branches, blackberries are turning from sour to sweet and the balmy days are advancing into cooler nights and Dogmilk share a stunning stripped back performance in the shed.

Sam and Zin from newly fledged Oxford band Suspire grace the shed with brilliance! Their stripped back performance will have band mates Emily and Albi fill up with joy for knowing that they are in a band with them and creating music together.

Warren welcomes freshly formed Yellow County into his home. The trio carry the Catgod torch across green fields and into the Shed at the end of the garden. The musical performances coming from this cozy, inspiring space continue to amaze us. The sounds are expertly recorded and mixed by Tiger Mendonza and Warren guides us into unchartered waters with his honest and enthusiastic hosting as well as a truly inexhaustible love for music.
