My Music Episode 681 - The Azurescens

On this episode of My Music, host Graham Coath sits down with Scottish indie rock outfit The Azurescens for a conversation that moves from psychedelic mushrooms and Morrisons supermarket meetings to songwriting, Covid-era creativity and the future of live music in an AI world.What unfolds is a funny, honest and deeply human discussion about why bands still matter. The Azurescens talk about forming just before lockdown, building songs together over time, the importance of improvisation and why emotional connection with an audience means more than algorithms, streams or industry hype.There are nods to Oasis, Pink Floyd, Hendrix, Bowie, Prince and The Police, alongside reflections on legacy, musicianship and the difference between making music and truly playing it. Graham and the band also explore how technology is changing creativity, why authenticity still cuts through and what it feels like when a crowd finally starts singing your songs back at you.If you love guitar music with heart, stories from the road and conversations about what creativity really means in a changing world, this is one worth turning up loud.
