Welcome to the Uncharted Sounds Podcast. Formerly known as The Uncharted 80’s Podcast, we’ve expanded our horizons to bring you even more of the music you love. With a fresh name comes fresh flexibility while we’ll still dive deep into the hidden gems of the 80s, we’re now exploring uncharted sounds from the 70s, 90s, and beyond. the format stays the same as we deliver informative and hopefully captivating band biographies and exclusive interviews with the artists who shaped these decades of music that were often under the radar and may have been forgotten by some. What they have in common in our view, is that their stories or their music has been uncharted. They may have left a lasting impact on some of us and it's time to celebrate them. Get ready to uncover their history, sounds, information, what we think and untold stories. We will talk to those that were involved and the impact they had on us and still do! Same passion for music, broader horizons.

This episode features an Interview with Charlie Higson who for 6 years appeared in the band The Higsons. he hasnt spoken about that much and we explore his part in the band and what happened afterwards. For those that are new to the Higsons they were formed in 1980 at the University of East Anglia in Norwich, The Higsons first recording was on the “Norwich – A Fine City” compilation album and they did 5 Sessions for John Peel. They released records on the 2 tone label and were part of that Norwich scene which included a number of bands which Charlie talks about but we interviewed one of them all the way back in Episode 2, Screen 3 so thats worth a listen after this one ! Charlie talks about moving from Music to TV comdey as part of the fast Show on BBC television, working with Paul Whitehouse and Harry Enfield amongst many others and also talks about then moving on to writing novels.

Its an all encompassing episode that covers his whole career and the conversation about the Higsons is one that has rarely been heard. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did making it and the Interview with Charlie starts at around 21.30 mins
