We’re 16 Episodes in and the chat is still going strong. This week, Jen catches up with Lucy and Sam from Math Pop supremos Orchards!

Recently signed by Big Scary Monsters, the band are heading for big things in 2019. Hailing from all over the UK, the quartet met on their first day studying at BIMM Brighton and have gone from strength to strength.

Check it out to hear Sam and Lucy’s thoughts on inclusivity, why we are still talking about ‘women in music’ being a ‘thing’ and writing songs from personal experience that help people. Also, for good measure, we touch on the big question of the day: taxidermy - is it good or bad?

Enjoy!
