    Hello, how are you all doing? Better still, how are the New Year’s resolutions going? Good? Fair play! I don’t believe in all that!

    Chat with Chris from Five Grand Stereo

    On this week’s episode of The London Ear, I was delighted to be able to catch up with Dublin born musician, Chris Singleton. Chris has been living in London for a number of years now and along with his band, Five Grand Stereo, have just released a new album ‘Sex and Money’.

    It’s been years since I chatted to Chris and it was great to be able to catch up with him. Check out the album ‘Sex and Money’ – it’s bloody good!
