Next up we have an interview with Jeff Martin, front man for Sunshine Overload, they have just released their self-titled debut, and will be playing this Friday at the Dominion - I caught up with Jeff, because of his busy schedule, there was a small window of time in which to chat - so we met up at a local Pub on bank street, unfortunately my audio system needed a power source, which was close to the open window - so please be forewarned that there are sounds from the street.

FAN feedback!✊️
good interview -7/10! I have heard so many now on Mighty I turn em off. They are too long and ramblng and use "in jokes" I don't get. The Music does the real, best talking. There should be a session @ the Station to practice & edit their material. The goal is to sell their music in very tough times! Right!
