We were in a band.
by Is breakfast compulsory? Productions
Two school friends nearing their 30's reconnect over fond memories of playing in bands together as teenagers. Each week they interview different people on the show, old friends to up-and-coming talent and even some established ARTISTES. From first gigs in empty village halls, laying down EP's in the studio, tours gone wrong and the fans (Or lack thereof!) Jack and Fin will trawl through the cringe, the strange and the straight-up hilarious stories that come hand in hand with rocking out and trying to make it as a teen in a band.
