Politics of Sound

Politics of Sound BITES #1: Cathy Eastburn, Extinction Rebellion

Iain Carnegie launches a new occasional companion podcast to the regular monthly Politics of Sound: Politics of Sound BITES. In this occasional release, Iain speaks to those making the news this week about their actions, motivations and the role that music plays within their lives. In this first episode of the BITES series, Iain speaks to prominent Extinction Rebellion activist and musician, Cathy Eastburn. They discuss her role in a number of actions, including the recent spray painting of the Treasury, her fears for the environment, her arrests and her impressive musical pedigree.

Politics of Sound is the podcast in which political figures pay an imaginary visit to the virtual PoS Record Shop, emerging with their life-long favourite albums. Multi-instrumentalist Iain Carnegie hosts the discussion as guests speak about (and sometimes perform!) the music which has shaped, inspired, amazed and amused them over the years.
