Due to some technical hiccups, this week’s show was broadcast at 3pm instead. Apologies to this week’s guest Jack O’Rourke and to you also for any inconvenience.

Chat with Jack O’Rourke

Jack is playing his first London headline show on Sunday 17th February in the Half Moon in Putney. This coincides with the March 8th release of a 6 track release ‘Ivory Towers’. We played the title track and ‘Myth’ around our chat. Jack released New Day with Kormac last year, which I made a Nessy Recommends. ‘Ivory Towers’ is Jack’s first proper release since he released his debut album, ‘Dreamcatcher’, in 2016. He’s such a lovely guy and really talented musician and songwriter. He deserves every success and accolade he receives.

You can get tickets for the show in The Half Moon here.

You can find out more about Jack on Facebook, Twitter and Insta.
