Saffron from Republica (Interview)

Welcome to Music Fishbowl - Music chatter for all! Dan returns with another super episode of his podcast. Every episode, Dan welcomes a brilliant guest to the show. This week it's a Britpop legend, Saffron from Republica! Saffron and Republica have been hard at work since the 1990s, upkeeping their cultural relevance over many eras of the music world. In 1996 they released their debut self-titled album, thirty years ago from now! To celebrate, the band are reissuing the album onto a double red and black cornetto-colloured vinyl, with bonus love content. They have also embarked on their 30 Years of Ready To Go your, travelling around the UK in October and November. Dan discusses the anniversary with Saffron, their ability to maintain relevance and her musical upbringing. This is not one to miss!
