Welcome to Turn Up The Volume!
You've reached the home of Turn Up The Volume!,
The Stables' monthly podcast series.
Each month we bring you lively conversations with upcoming Stables artists and bands, exclusive looks behind the scenes at one of the UK's favourite music venues along with news and updates on what's coming up.
In the October edition, Nick Coffer is joined by three artists whose music and stories capture the heart of what live performance is all about.
Grace Petrie opens the episode with her trademark mix of conviction, wit and compassion. She talks about the political threads running through her album Build Something Better, why empathy matters more than ever, and how her new show No Time to Panic balances protest, reflection and humour.
Next, Mike Lindup, co-founder of Level 42, looks back on a lifetime in music - from the jazz-funk that defined a decade to the creative freedom of his solo albums Changes and Changes 2. He shares memories of his musical upbringing, the story behind Something About You, and his personal link to Stables founders John Dankworth and Cleo Laine.
Finally, Julie Fowlis joins from her US tour to talk about the power of Gaelic song, the connection between language and landscape, and the joy of bringing Scottish tradition to new audiences around the world.
