42: The Tunics - Joseph Costello on being inspired by the Libertines, becoming a hit in Germany, and being banned from playing live by Croydon Council

The Boys in the Band Podcast - Un pódcast de Peter Smith & Richard Gallagher

Categorías:

Joseph Costello from The Tunics joins us this week on The Boys in the Band Podcast and tells us about the rapid rise of his band who were signed almost immediately after their first central London gig.  They'd actually been banned from playing live by Croydon Council when they were starting out but, taking their inspiration from the Libertines and similar London bands, they were soon snapped up by a record company.  When track Shine On was used in a German film, their popularity on the continent boomed and Joseph reflects on the band moving to Berlin to capitalise on that interest, and talks us through the band's albums.  The Tunics fan?
