SAM SHIPSTONE

Manx Radio Live Lounge

Tuesday, 23 January 2024 - 21 minutes

When Christy played the latest Yard Act single and enthused about it with Lenny Conroy at the back end of 2023, she also mentioned that the band had 'switched on the Christmas lights in their hometown, the Yorkshire village of Meanwood. So she was surprised to receive an email a few weeks later from Yard Act's guitarist, Sam Shipstone, saying he wasn't from Meanwood at all, but was actually 'from the Isle of Man'..! 

So naturally, Christy took the opportunity to find out more - and Sam generously carved out a chunk of time* for a good old fashioned chinwag (*in between writing out lists, recording hit-making riffs and re-grouting his shower). Full interview available here now.

Yard Act's new album, Where's my Utopia? is out March 1st. Pre- order here.
