This week our guest is the amazing Lou Paley from Women In Jazz, an incredible organisation that aims to bring more representation for women within the Jazz genre.
We discuss her first show, The Maccabees at ULU, at a time when it was mandatory to wear bright Yellow Jeans at all British Indie shows. We then go off on a tangent about Drinking and Golf, before discussing Lou's first festival, Glastonbury 2009. Bruce Springsteen definitely played that one. Finally we bring the conversation to discussing how those initial shows lead her to a career working with Jazz musicians.

Widowspeak's first gigs were Backstreet Boys & Rolling Stones
Oh ma gawd we're back again!
After a little break, DYRTFT is back, this week talking to Molly and Rob of the fantastic band Widowspeak.
We get into their first arena shows, Backstreet Boys and The Rolling Stones. Then we dive deeper, talking club shows with Good Charlotte and Jet. Along the way there's some titillating Titanic talk (spoiler alert!), some backronym chat and of course we dive into first festivals, Bumbershoot '03 and Lollapalooza '05.
Widowspeak released the excellent Honeychurch EP earlier this year on Captured Tracks.
Bob & Carrie Weston's first gigs were The Cars and Jefferson Starship
Let the good times roll!
This week we are joined by Bob (Shellac) and Carrie Weston (WLUW Radio,) who take us on a fantastic musical journey.
Bob was introduced to live music through The Cars, later finding his musical inspiration through Volcano Suns. Carrie was made to attend a Jefferson Starship gig, then realised shows are actually good upon seeing The Psychedelic Furs a couple of years later.
We also discuss broken arms, festivals, radio, moving to Chicago, Shellac, ATP, Considerate DJing, My Bloody Valentine, Fake IDs and they also flip the script on us and we share our first gigs for the first time.
It's a wild ride!

James McMahon's first gig was Supergrass
We welcome you to another episode of musical nostalgia!
James McMahon was kind enough to take a break from searching for Bigfoot to join us on the latest episode, taking us on a journey through his life and experiences as a renowned member of the music press.
He walks us through the many stories surrounding his first gig, Supergrass in Sheffield and his first festival V1996, but that's not all! There's so much more! Music press, music fandom and all of his fantastic projects he is working on right now. We won't deny it, this is a long one, but we found it all so enjoyable and enlightening, we couldn't rob you of any of it.
Check out the many projects James is currently working on, including Spoook, Indie Heaven and the OCD Chronicles via his website.

Francine Gorman's first gig was Hundred Reasons
Your favourite podcast that doesn't falter is back!
In this episode we are joined by Francine Gorman of JaJaJa and Keychange. Her formative gigging years were spent in the town of Northampton and her first show, Hundred Reasons (joint headline with Capdown) formed a life long love with live music.
In this episode we discuss just how good British indie was in the early 2000s, as well as her first festival Reading 2003. We also spend a little bit of time discussing her beloved Huddersfield Town FC and delve into our new feature 'Toffolo Time', where mutual appreciation of the player Harry Toffolo is shared between Norwich and Huddersfield fans alike.
Francine discusses the Keychange project, which aims to improve gender balance representation over the music industry, which is an incredibly important project we urge listeners to check out.
