Who's the man? Its John Spillane

The Mario Rosenstock Podcast

There’s no one quite like John Spillane. Such a unique voice, a style of lyrics that you won’t find anywhere else (think Dunne’s Stores girl), and he’s got the personality to back it all up too. John is one of Ireland’s most interesting and loved singer songwriters, and in our chat we talk about all sorts of stuff – what inspires his songs, his love of Irish mythology, meeting one of his musical hero’s Brian Eno, and of course, his great love of Cork, boy! You know when you sit down with John Spillane that its not going to be the usual type of interview, and this one certainly doesn’t disappoint. COMEDY: The great Vincent Brown is back, and he’s angry – not because of all of the major scandals in Irish politics right now, but because of the lack of them!!FANCY WINNING A BRAND NEW LAPTOP?Thanks to our friends and supporters at Currys PC world, one lucky listener to The Mario Rosenstock Podcast will win a gorgeous HP Pavillion 2 in 1 laptop with a 14 inch touch screen, Intel Core i3 processor, 8.5 hours battery life and loads of other fancy bells and whistles.
