Summary
This week Guy and Gary chat with singer and songwriter Nick Heyward.
Nick burst onto the scene in the early 80s with his band Haircut One Hundred and the debut album Pelican West. Which is re-released to celebrate the 40th anniversary! They enjoyed 4 Top 10 songs within a year, but before they started work on the 2nd, Nick left to go solo! In this episode, Nick talks about his influences, his love for the band and the upcoming live show in May at the O2 Shepherd’s Bush…with maybe more to follow.
Rockonteurs is produced by Ben Jones for Gimme Sugar Productions.
