Andrew Collins sits in for Nemone and chats to Sarah Blackwood from Dubstar about what the band have been up to, plus Darwin Deez picks ten tunes currently twisting his curls.
Darwin hails from New York City born in North Carolina to Meher Baba disciples. Once dubbed the indie Michael Jackson, Darwin was given a guitar for this 11th birthday, it was a cream Fender Strat which he actually still uses. "My dad taught me some chords and I started writing songs straight away, writing the lyrics on these real small 3x5 cards". Darwin picks 10 tunes currently twisting his curls in the Most Played feature.
Dubstar were formed in 1992 by Steve Hillier and Chris Wilkie in Gateshead with Sarah Blackwood joining in 1993, replacing Steve Hillier on vocals and have so far released 5 albums. Sarah chats to Andrew about the what the band have been up to recently.
