In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Robert and Matt Deighton as they discuss their musical collaboration and the creation of their new album together called "The Instant Garden". Every so often an album appears that surprises and delights and somehow defies categorisation. Robert and Matt have conjured up a garden full of earthly delights and mysterious depths. It’s really unlike anything else. A sonic assortment of open tuned acoustics and ferocious electrics with psychedelic melodies and bells and bass. Hosted on Acast.
