That 80s Show meets Graeme Clark from Wet Wet Wet

Loading player...
Resisting the chance to talk about the wet, wet, wet weather in Joburg (we're sure they'd heard that a million times), Barret gets into the podcast time machine to go back to the 80s with Graeme Clark, founding member of Wet Wet Wet.
Having sold in excess of 15 million singles and albums to date, Wet Wet Wet have featured in the official UK charts for over 500 weeks and their albums have been certified 20 x platinum in the UK alone. The band appeared on the BBC TV show Top Of The Pops an amazing 56 times, a record for a Scottish artist.
Barret and Graeme talk about the bands roots, new frontman Kevin Simm, the new album, 'Journey' and so much more.
