9-42 meets Wayne Hussey

The one where we talk about shirts and socks with Wayne Hussey.

For many people, Wayne Hussey is part of Goth Royalty. In fact, if you did a rundown of the most influential Goth acts, he would probably get into the list twice, once with the Sisters of Mercy and then a second time with The Mission.

But as we found out when we passed a very enjoyable hour in his company, this would be to pigeon-hole a musician with a fascinating history and a rich network of contemporaries and influences. And that is before you try and make sense of why a lad from Bristol should become such a big Liverpool FC fan.

9-42 is the podcast from the team behind The Guitar Show UK, an annual event held in Birmingham and loved by guitarists young & old. You can keep up with news about the event by visiting the website or by following on your preferred platform Facebook Twitter Instagram

About the Podcast

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.
