    An Interview with Ken McCluskey
    Aug 19 2024
    On this episode I chat to Ken McCluskey, lead singer of Scottish indie new wave act The Bluebells.

    Their memorable track Young At Heart reached an impressive number eight in the charts when it was first released in 1983, but nine years later it truly became a smash hit when it soared to the top spot. A song we've all no doubt embarrsingly danced to at some form of family function. We talk about the band's early days, their latest record, being mentored by Elvis Costello and that wee cameo in Still Game.

    One of Glasgow's dark horses despite being bright orange at the top, Peter's mix of observation, surreal nonsense and dark humour has seen him rise from rookie to regular of the Scottish comedy scene in no time at all.Having played shows all across the U.K., he now co-organises and runs two legendary comedy nights in Glasgow City centre and in March 2023 won the prestigious "Beat the Gong" show in Stockton!
