With music venues closed for the foreseeable future we talk to Matt Otridge from the Exchange in Bristol about how the industry will survive lockdown, his involvement with the Music Venues Trust and Save Our Venues, and what us fans can do to help.
We also play tracks from Bristol band Woahnows and US artist Olivia Awbrey who was due to tour the area to promote her new album.
The Sheer Isolation podcast is being produced weekly to promote the music scene in Wiltshire and the West of England.
It's created by Kieran Moore (Sheer Music) and Jon Ponting (4014 Project; The Late Gig).
We send our thanks to all musicians who've allowed us to use their tracks in this show.
Musicians and artists are very welcome to send us videos to feature and any news or streaming dates... sheerisolation@gmail.com
