There are moments when The Third Half makes me smile as much and as wide as I ever smile (and I smile a lot!)
I’m absolutely over the moon, and hugely grateful, to say that My Girl The River will be playing live at our little shindig at the end of August.
When Kris and Joe joined me on The Third Half last December, I came away thinking that these wonderfully talented brilliant musicians (I’d already seen the live) were also genuinely lovely people too. We talked about music, purpose, creativity, and the realities of making a living in the industry, plus Joe’s extraordinary story of co-writing “No More I Love You’s” before Annie Lennox turned it into the worldwide hit we all know.
Since then I’ve been lucky enough to hear snippets of their forthcoming album, Manifest Good Things, out 4 September. From what I’ve heard so far, it’s going to be something special, and I can’t wait for the finished record.
If you want to hear them, they’re on Patrick Kielty’s Saturday morning show (1 August) at around 10.45am, amongst other things, taking on the football chant challenge.
I’ll link our original conversation below. If you haven’t listened before, give it a go.
Kris and Joe, thank you for saying yes. It means a huge amount to us, and everyone joining us at the end of August is in for a real treat.
