9-42 meets Darrel Higham

The one where we talked football & rockabilly with Darrel Higham.

It's a bit difficult to know where to start when describing Darrel. As a guitarist he has played in numerous bands, with the likes of Shakin’ Stevens & Imelda May. Worked on sessions for artists such as Chrissie Hynde & Robert Plant and appeared in the West End (and on tour) playing Eddie Cochran.

He is a Gretsch endorsee and helped Peavey design their first ever semi-acoustic guitar, the Rockingham.

Oh, and he was born in Bedford and supports Sunderland football club.

All of which probably accounts for the fact we had plenty to talk about.

9-42 is the podcast from the team behind The Guitar Show, the UK's biggest annual guitar event.

I'm Jason, and when I am not co-hosting this podcast I am trying to organise the next Guitar Show. The other co-host is Ant, we've known each other for years and he's the fella that pressured me in to doing this.

I have been tinkering with audio since my mid-teens, recording songs & producing content for friends.

Post university I embraced the world of retail, firstly in supermarkets and later in & around the music instrument industry.

After 20 years or so, I took a sideways step into podcasting and began a venture called ashortstories, which helps in the development & production of podcasts for anyone that has a story to tell.
