What's that... two episodes in two days? That's right, the Old Dirty Brasstards are back with more, and this time they're discussing their 2021 cover of Blur's 1994 hit "Girls & Boys".Chris Smith, Seb Philpott, and Barney Philpott (who arranged it and produced the track) have a chat about the song, whilst accidentally digging up some deep-rooted memories and perhaps some unexplored trauma. It sounds quite hard-going, doesn't it? But it's pretty light-hearted to be honest, though we should probably warn you about some graphic imagery in the first five minutes. If you're squeamish about teeth injuries, maybe skip to about 7 minutes in.Thanks for listening and stay tuned for the next episode, all about Pulp's 1995 smash "Disco 2000".Supported by Arts Council England.Listen to Old Dirty Brasstards on Spotify, Bandcamp or Youtube.Go to www.olddirtybrasstards.co.uk to learn more about the band and find out when we are next playing live.
