My Music with Graham Coath – featuring Brides
Joe and James join me to talk about their roots in Stevenage and Liverpool, their favourite venues, and why playing live is as much about laughter as it is about music.
We dig into:
The band’s origins—neighbours with guitars, late-night writing sessions, and turning chaos into songs
Why their sound nods to American alt-rock influences while keeping a raw Liverpool energy
How their single Creature Culture was born from messy nights, whirlwind friendships, and a surreal video shoot in the woods (complete with a TV and a ghillie suit)
The fun, friendship, and humour that fuel their performances—and why trying to make each other laugh on stage is all part of the show
Future plans for EPs, touring, and even challenging other bands… on the basketball court
Brides aren’t afraid to experiment with sounds, time signatures, or storytelling. Whether it’s through sci-fi characters, abstract tales, or straight-up indie energy, they’re carving out their own space on the UK music scene.
🎧 Tune in for a conversation full of music, mischief, and moments that show why this band is one to watch.
