Interview: Mhairi McFarlane

Sat 14 Mar 2015

The writer of You Had Me At Hello reveals all about her career move from Nottingham Post journo to funny chick lit author

Having graced our screens in a scruffy apron and bonnet for the Channel 4 series The Mill over the course of last year, Holly Lucas has now ditched the dirty work in favour of the Buddhist faith. We caught up with her and had a good old natter about veganism, lamb chops, and those jobs you just want to forget...

Interview: Darren Stanton, The Human Lie Detector

Mon 09 Mar 2015

With a talent for spotting when people are telling porkies, Darren Stanton has been dubbed ‘the world’s leading human lie detector’. Spending his time travelling between his home in Carlton and his increasing work and celebrity in Los Angeles, he lives a somewhat double life. We were on our best behaviour when we met him...

Interview: Ferocious Dog

Fri 06 Mar 2015

Few Notts bands can say they’ve sold out Rescue Rooms and The Bodega, let alone boast a Glastonbury headliner (we’re talking Pyramid Stage too, not Jethro’s Lentil Yurt Stage). Ferocious Dog can. Hailing from Warsop, they released their debut album in 2013 and are set to release their second. We had a natter with fiddle player and co-songwriter, Dan Booth.

Interview: DIY Poets' Francis McMahon

Thu 05 Mar 2015

"We want the public to want to read poetry and not see it as an irrelevant art form"

Interview: Winston Graham

Thu 26 Feb 2015

Equipped with a cheeky grin and a bag full of vinyl, Winston Graham (aka Winnie, DJ Win, and Mr Blender) has been spinning certified Motown, soul, dub and reggae bangers on the Nottingham circuit since 1974. A born and bred Radford lad, and now back on the scene, we had a natter about all things Notts, as well as the iPod and laptop plague.

Interview: Sophie Bradley, Notts County Ladies

Wed 25 Feb 2015

Sophie Bradley started her career at Forest, moved to Leeds and is now Defender and Captain for Notts County Ladies FC. In between all that, she’s played for England at the 2011 Women’s World Cup and at the 2012 Olympic Games. We chatted to the local lass about representing her country and team banter...

Interview: Shelter Point

Fri 20 Feb 2015

Shelter Point’s woozy, dreamy songs are winning over every tastemaker, from Zane Lowe to the LeftLion team. Back from a UK tour with Indiana, and with a Sony deal in the bag, we sat down with singer Liam and producer Robin to find out how it all began, what’s next, and their adventures in between…

Interview: Amy White, Nottingham Forest Ladies

Thu 19 Feb 2015

Amy White, Midfielder for Nottingham Forest Ladies FC, was scouted by Forest as a nipper. Seemingly unable to sit still, the 23-year-old holds down a full-time job, plays professional football and somehow manages to fit in coaching and a social life. Currently out with an injury, we chatted to her about her love of the beautiful game...

Interview: Grey Hairs

Wed 18 Feb 2015

Featuring Amy (live bass), Bod (recorded bass), Chris (guitars), Dave (drums) and James (vocals), the members of Grey Hairs all play in other Nottingham bands including Fonda 500, Fists, Kogumaza and Bus Stop Madonnas. Initially formed partly to scratch an itch that their other bands just weren’t reaching, and partly as an excuse to pop to the pub.

Interview: Gregory Woods

Thu 12 Feb 2015

In honour of February being LGBT History Month, we caught up with poet and former NTU lecturer, Gregory Woods, to discuss gay rights, Ann Widdecombe and our silly British sensibilities when it comes to sex...

Interview: Philip George

Wed 11 Feb 2015

A short time ago, Philip Woodhead was making beats in his bedroom and working at Next, when attention for his tune Wish You Were Mine started gaining momentum on several streaming platforms. After signing to 3 Beat, the track reached number two in the charts and has picked up international acclaim. We checked in with him on the blower…

Interview: Aisling Loftus

Sat 07 Feb 2015

Don’t be fooled by the Cockney accent, Aisling Loftus may play a southerner in the ITV drama Mr Selfridge, but she’s cut from Nottingham cloth. With roles lined up in an adaptation of the notoriously weighty War and Peace, and the somewhat lighter Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, we spoke to her about her screen journey thus far…

Interview: The Dilettante Society

Wed 28 Jan 2015

Ever seen a pretty gazette knocking around the flier section in the pub? We exchange pleasantries with Lady M and F Dashwood, the two lovely ladies behind it...

City Arts Move From Radford Into City Centre

Mon 12 Jan 2015

The newest face in town is City Arts. Parked next door to the Writers’ Studio on the border of Sneinton, the new office and creative space is the most centrally located in the organisation’s nearly forty-year history…

Interview: Amber Run

Tue 06 Jan 2015

The University of Nottingham-formed band Amber Run have been one of the city’s rising stars in recent months, releasing two strong EPs this year as well as touring, writing, and recording their debut album. Joe Keogh and Will Jones took time out of their busy schedule to tell us about their new music, performing, and baking...

Interview: Laughing Matters

Fri 02 Jan 2015

Taking the old adage that laughter is the best medicine, Kirstie MacDonald and Mark Christian set up Laughing Matters, a social enterprise project that aims to help people who’re having a hard time by getting them to learn a few tricks from the people who make a crust from chuckles…

Interview: Machine-free Tattooist Boff Konkerz

Thu 01 Jan 2015

"I didn't get into it with the idea that it would be a good way to tattoo, I started tattooing like that and then I worked out why it was a good way"

Interview: Joe Buhdha

Tue 16 Dec 2014

Producer, promoter, label boss, rapper, DJ, lecturer, Joe Buhdha has held down just about every job in hip-hop, bar leather trackies inventor. As Can’t Stop Won’t Stop’s first release hits stereos, he told us about how it all started, and why he’s got no plans to let up anytime soon…

Interview: Ian Douglas

Mon 15 Dec 2014

"The children's book industry looks down its nose on the digital world and is stuck in the past"

Interview: Bob Robinson

Thu 11 Dec 2014

Born in County Tyrone, Bob Robinson has called Nottingham home for the last forty-odd years. It’s here he’s created work that is equally bold, humorous and grotesque, yet has gained little recognition. Now aged 63 and living with terminal cancer, we spoke to him about the inspiration behind his art and how it feels to have a retrospective at such a poignant time.

Rough Trade Open Up In Nottingham

Wed 10 Dec 2014

Stephen Godfroy, director and co-owner of Rough Trade, is credited with revitalising the company after joining a decade ago. Firstly he introduced the subscription-based ‘Album Club’ and then helped develop Rough Trade East, the company’s flagship store on trendier-than-thou Brick Lane. After setting up Rough Trade New York last October, the independent record store has opened its first UK store outside of London on Broad Street. He came to Nottingham for the store’s opening, so we nipped in for a chat…

Interview: Owl Man Frank Shelton

Tue 09 Dec 2014

You might have seen Frank Shelton walking around town with a majestic bird and cute little hound but, like us, probably refer to him as his more sophisticated alias – Owl Man. We grabbed a cuppa with him at the Malt Cross, along with his dog Lucy and barn owl Kim…
