Joel Pott was frontman of indie band Athlete and he tells The Boys in the Band Podcast about south London's influence on the band, how they shaped their unique sound, and why their approach changed when hit single Wires and accompanying album Tourist propelled the band into the limelight. Joel is now a songwriter for others, co-writing hits for a diverse range of acts from Tom Grennan to Shura. He works a lot with George Ezra and we discuss the process of collaborative songwriting, his experiences with George, and the challenges of writing for different styles of music. Athlete fan?
