Where do we start with this? We have the full TwinsTown experience. Chat, live music, drink, laughter and fall outs. Pure madness. Also a beautiful live track from Condie to kick things off and a wee cameo from Aaron Wright. We had to cut some of the show as it descended into chaos. All good fun though. We finish with the supreme talent of Callum Paterson. What a night!
Birrell or Biscuit Interview & Live Lounge 2021
To celebrate the release of UFO Space Disco through Whanga Records, we have Whanga Records co-founder, Craig Birrell, aka Birrell or Biscuit, in to chat about the song and the crazy road that got him to where he is now. From leaving home at 16, squatting in London, a shit load of name dropping and a sprinkling of mental illness, right up to the present day and the beginnings of Whanga Records.
