9-42 meets Irwin Sparkes

The one where we kick Irwin Sparkes in the goolies (in his words)

Self-confessed gear-o-phobe, musical luminary, and all round fantastic bloke Irwin Sparkes is both the front man and driving force behind The Hoosiers, and a prolific and eclectic songwriter and producer

We caught up with him just before the launch of his new solo album, and chatted about the evolution of the project as well as his experiences of lockdown, the Hoosiers and the journey that took him to the Edinburgh Fringe festival.

About the Podcast

9-42
The Guitar Show Podcast
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.

Each episode we will endeavour to bring you the stories behind the gear, to talk to the artists, the influencers and the manufacturers that keep us playing and loving the guitar.

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.
