#339 - Grouplove

Christian and Hannah of Grouplove join Tom to tell the amazing story behind their group and their new album, This Is This. They recall meeting and falling in love, Hannah being completely new to making music before forming the multi-million streaming band and being signed after a packed gig at a Mexican restaurant in Los Angeles. They also explain why they had to leave the City of Angels in search of a less vacuous life in Atlanta, Georgia. This episode is brought to you by Lumie, the original inventors of wake-up lights, whose Bodyclock Luxe 750DAB wake-up light mimics a natural sunrise and sunset.
