    What better way to round off a beautiful Sunday than by listening to the Northern Soul Podcast? This week Lucy McNamara chats to the splendid Shauna Mackin, a young singer from Dublin who has made her home in Manchester. Already a seasoned live act and much praised by BBC Introducing, Mackin is destined for big things. If you’ve not heard her music before, think Dusty Springfield meets Cat Power meets Peggy Lee meets Joni Mitchell.

    Spring has sprung and what better way to enjoy the sunshine than by listening to The Northern Soul Podcast? This week Lucy chats to Hatcham Social at Manchester’s Soup Kitchen. Hatcham Social have been described by The Guardian as ‘irrestistible’ while Tim Burgess calls them ‘a wonderful pop group with the world’s coolest drummer’ (Finnigan Kidd, formerly of Klaxons). Lucy also plays tunes by, among others, Francois & the Atlas Mountains, Shy Nature, Lucius and Boy & Bear.

    It’s Sunday night. Grab yourself a glass of wine, cuddle up to your special someone (perfectly OK if that means your cat) and listen to the Northern Soul Podcast. This week Lucy McNamara chats to Bolton-born James Holt, a 20-year-old singer/songwriter tipped for big things. We think this young guy has a bright future ahead of him. Lucy also plays tunes from, among others, Shauna Mackin, Vance Joy, Foals and Daughter.

    It’s that time again, time for the lovely jubbly Northern Soul Podcast. This week Lucy McNamara meets René. Over the past five years, this Manchester band has performed its original funk at venues across Britain. According to the band, its music is “fabulously freaky foot-tapping funk”. Listen to what they had to say to Northern Soul and enjoy tunes from, among others, Flyte, The Polyphonic Spree, The Coves and Kishi Bashi. Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Greenhalgh. A very interesting choice of guest. Not eloquent, removed, ill informed it seems and unable to put forward a point of view without seeming like he might have a heart attack. Tories 🤷🏻‍♀️. #Newsnight
