Laurie Shaw
Episode 5
Thursday, 10 July, 2025

In this episode, the final in the series, we meet Laurie Shaw. Laurie's been producing albums at a prolific rate for many years and in this interview we talked about the 2022 release Sceptre, focusing on the album's lead single Captain's Log. A loose, swashbuckling song, Captain's Log gave us an opportunity to chat about Laurie's approach to DIY recording, how he visualizes his albums, and when all's said and done trying not to be worry about it too much.
