    The London Ear on RTE 2XM // Show 168 with Gregory Nolan

    On this week’s show, I chat to Irish photographer, Gregory Nolan, whose exhibition ‘This was our scene’ is happening in the Fumbally Exchange in Dublin from October 19.

    Hold on here a cotton picking minute, I hear you say, this show is about Irish people outside Ireland, no? In saying that, you are in fact correct. Gregory shot all the images for his exhibit in the mid noughties in London’s indie music scene.

    Gregory is based between Europe and the U.S. and has worked with the likes of Bastille and Frank Turner. This collection of photographs gives a great insight into that London scene, not only the bands but also the punters!

    Last Sunday night, I had the pleasure of heading to Whelan’s to see one Mr Frank Turner. I was totally surprised with how good he was. He puts on an amazing show. I wrote about it for Goldenplec, go have a look. As I said over there, ‘There’s not enough Frank Turner in the world’.
