About the show
The story behind the songs.
Music rarely begins in a studio. It begins in a life. That is where the conversation starts.
The Orangerie is an independent interview podcast built around musicians' life stories: beginnings, breakthroughs, wrong turns, influences, work, doubt and the songs that survived it all.
Recorded at home in Greater Manchester, the show leaves room for a proper conversation and, where possible, an intimate performance of the artist's own music.
- Long enough to get beyond the biography
- Curious, warm and properly researched
- Independent artists treated with the same care as established names
