Brian Watson
Brian does the AmericanPrög Show with Mike Whitfield. And Not The AmericanPrög Show not with him. He is quite tall for his age, and sometimes wears a hat.
In this episode of the From the Attic podcast we explore the inner workings of Dave Dawson’s minds via a cunning system of flaps, straps, and harnesses. Expect to hear about Gary Numan, Motley Crue (not sure where the umlaut goes, tbh), Tom Robinson, Haze, Genesis, and the entire pantheon of modern rock music […]
80 shows ago we had not only Mike Whitfield, but Gordon Midgley, in the Attic. We were celebrating the 5th birthday of Napier’s Bones, and the new NB album ‘Monuments’. Not only did we engage in MAMTABs but Gordon did a live session with his acoustic guitar. We had 1 (count them) USB microphone plonked […]

If there’s a trilogy of albums that any self-respecting rock fan should own then it’s the first three records by Days Between Stations. We chatted with Oscar and Sepand recently, and played some tunes. Their new album, Giants, is out now, and is phenomenally good. So go get it. Or Graham’s owl […]
It’s been on my bucket list for a while but we finally coaxed Alan ‘The Kraaaz’ Kraslow into the Attic. Whilst he’s been here in person once before, when he first visited these fair shores, this is his first time on the Pod and suffice to say it’s a belter of an episode. Interspersed amongst […]
Whilst The Kraaaz was away in the Galapagos recently, Brian and Mike covered his Krazzloft Vinyl Show, with predictable results. A plethora of fine artistes, taking pity on their general lack of charisma and fine motor skills, helped them out: The Clash – London Calling The Polyphonic Spree – The Spirit of Radio Chris Rea […]

Joining me in The Attic for this episode is Lee Spreadbury of GU-RU, a lovely lad and mahoosively talented to boot. We talk bobbins, of course, and find time to play a couple of tracks from the new GU-RU EP ‘Zenith’s Privilege’, as well as a tune from the debut album ‘Tales From The […]
