THE THIRD EPISODE IN THE SERIES OF THE "HUTCH CHATS" PODCAST.  THIS TIME AROUND, FOCUSING ON THE DERRY-BORN, LEEDS-BASED SINGER/SONGWRITER THOMAS JOHN. (THIS IS THE FIRST ONE I'VE EVER DONE OVER ZOOM, BUT HOPEFULLY THERE AREN'T ANY NOTICEABLE ISSUES IN TERMS OF SOUND OR THE FLOW OF THE CONVERSATION). OVER THE COURSE OF OUR CONVERSATION, WE TALK ABOUT THOMAS' BEGINNINGS IN MUSIC AND SONGWRITING, OUR MEMORIES OF THE DERRY MUSIC SCENE AND HOW IT HAS CHANGED OVER THE YEARS, THE IMPACT OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC ON THOMAS' MUSIC MAKING, BREAKING DOWN THE INSPIRATION BEHIND A FEW OF HIS SONGS, HIS PLANS FOR THE FUTURE, AND THE HAZARDS OF CORDUROY FLARES.
