Kscope Podcast episode188: Paul Draper

Paul Draper is the former front man and chief songwriter behind Mansun, one of the most criminally under-rated and misunderstood bands of the Britpop era.

An extraordinarily adventurous and eclectic band who were only active for 8 years, between 1995 - 2003, the sheer wealth and quality of material Mansun released in that time is monumental. 

 

Remfry Dedman sat down with Paul to discuss his new album 'Mansun Retold', where Paul takes some of his favourite songs from the Mansun back catalogue and rebuilds them with a full acoustic band featuring acoustic guitars, bass, lead and rhythm guitars, drums and a string quartet.
