Martin sits down with singer-songwriter Sarah Whatmore for a warm, wide-ranging conversation that moves through Manchester childhood memories, stadium atmospheres and the intimate joys of vinyl and live performance. Sarah recounts her rise in the industry, why she declined touring as a backup singer for a major pop star, and how motherhood and time away reshaped her creative choices. They discuss changes in the music business—streaming economics, songwriting revenue, and the potential of Podcasting 2.0—while celebrating physical records, acoustic sets, and the nostalgia that keeps ’80s and ’90s music alive.
