Thanks for listening to the 3rd in our collection of special Deepdale Festival Podcasts in 2024. Jason is your host for this episode.

In this episode Jason chats with Kathryn Williams and Dan Willson (aka Withered Hand), who perform on Friday. With Polly Paulusma, who performs on Sunday. And with Jess Silk, who also performs on Sunday.

Kathryn and Dan are a relatively new collaboration, two superb musicians who have loved creating together. They recorded their album in Edinburgh, and Dan is wandering those streets while he chats to Jason. The album recording was just before Kathryn chatted on this podcast last year, the album is now in the world, and their set at Deepdale Festival is part of their busy Autumn schedule.

Polly who has also joined Jason on the Deepdale Podcast previously, has just reached a huge milestone with fundraising to develop a triple vinyl album.

Jess joins Jason from the Black Country, chatting about how the Jess Silk Trio came about, her writing process and her love of playing at festivals.

Thank you to all of them for allowing us to play a sample of their music. From Kathryn Williams & Withered Hand we play Weekend, from Polly Paulusma we play Wildfires, and from Jess Silk we play There’s a Bar at the End of the World.

Enjoy this episode, and look out for future episodes which we’ll release shortly.
