Today I'm really excited to be chatting to BBC star Nick Cope, of Nick Cope's Popcast fame! (And so is Percy!)


We discuss:

  • Making the transition from indie pop star to kid’s tv presenter
  • The secret of writing a good song for the whole family to enjoy
  • Perfoming for young children
  • Getting his show on the BBC
  • Growing up with a famous dad
  • How he got started playing music
  • Not being able to remember the notes on a fretboard
  • Adding the ukulele to his songs
  • What guitars and ukuleles he uses
  • A trick for keeping his ukulele in tune while recording
  • Having a song banned by the BBC!

If you have any thoughts, comments or guest suggestions for the show please send me a message to [email protected]
