As the executive director of Regent Park School of Music, the man behind experimental pop project Friendly Rich, and the host/producer of Industry Tactics podcast, Richard Marsella wears many hats.
He's set to release his 11th studio album with accompanying music video, which will premiere at Friendly Rich's Indie Arts Festival on November 2nd.
We talk to Richard about RPSM students being sampled on the new Taylor Swift album, his DIY approach to music videos, and the hellish monstrosity of seeing Billy Idol live as a young child.
