Stuart Coupe

Today Joey speaks to Stuart Coupe. When Stuart moved from the northern Tasmanian town of Launceston to Adelaide in the mid-70s he was a representative squash player, with a passion for music, and an unlikely taste for counter culture. It was not long before he fell into the world of music – his own zine roadrunner was a quiet step into a career that would see him come face to face with the likes of Bob Dylan, and Mick Jagger, manage Paul Kelly and the Hoodoo Gurus, and promote acts as varied Chris Whitley, Lucinda Williams, and Harry Dean Stanton. In more recent times he has taken up radio. On Tuesday he hosts Tune Up - a show dedicated to covers - due to that and the many other shows he has hosted over the years he is often referred as the god father of FBi radio.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
