Listen "74 - DETOURS - Stella Creasy on Walthamstow, Blur, Pulp, Suede, The Wedding Present & more"
Episode Synopsis
Join us as we welcome our local Member of Parliament here in Walthamstow, Stella Creasy to Music Maps by way of Manchester & Colchester. Stella grew up in Manchester where she loved the Stone Roses & her Mum taught A Guy Called Gerald at school. As a teenager she was unexpectedly uprooted to the suburbs in Colchester where she discovered a local band by the name of Blur. She tells us about her love for Pulp, James, Suede & her well documented passion for The Wedding Present. We also discuss issues for touring bands as a result of Brexit & how we can do more & assistance for grassroots venues to ensure new acts continue to come through.
