The Artist Series #1 - Abi Hubbard & Claire Pitt Wigmore

Welcome along to episode #1 of The Artist Series Podcast.

It's all about artists interviewing artists and for this episode we brought together Abigail Hubbard (Liotia, Hello Gecko) and Claire Pitt Wigmore (NIFTY - OTM, Squangey Bobbins, Ebony Moon).

This episode has been in the works for some time and it was recorded prior to the summer - so some of what was discussed is now out of date. Show notes are below :-)

If you'd rather listen to this episode on a different platform, you can find it on our YouTube channel and by searching "Seaside Sessions" in your favourite Podcast App.
