33. Chris Smith - a podcast by Seb Philpott and Verity Simmons
from 2020-11-30T04:00:56
It’s episode 33 and Seb and Verity head south of the river to chat to trombonist, co founder of the Old Dirty Brasstards and all round top bloke, Chris Smith.
We don’t like favouritism here at Three In A Bar but boy, what a great host Chris was! In what felt as close to a social event as you get these days the wine was flowing and conversation covered Glastonbury - it may be the first time ever the world famous festival has been compared to Wigan - Spotify algorithms, the inception of the Brasstards and their speedy path to success.
Chris reminisces about his days at Junior Academy and they talk about their varied early experiences of singing in choirs....you genuinely won’t believe which of the three sang at the Proms. Verity’s mind is blown by some 80’s TV trivia and Seb reveals the difficulties he faced googling the ungoogleable Chrs Smith.
They quiz Chris on his extensive knowledge of Indie music, in particular his love of the Manic Street Preachers and they look to the future with what might be on the cards for ODB in the coming months.
