We talk to Danny McCormack - Bass Player, originally for The Wildhearts, The Yo-Yo's and now Danny Wildheart & The UK Reprobates. Danny takes us back to growing up in South Shields earning his Punk Rock stripes from the local Punks in the town before heading to London during the early 90s to make his mark on the UK and worldwide music scene in The Wildhearts. We hear all about his unique and thunderous bass tone which has become his trademark, causing rock and roll trouble wherever he goes but always along the way being a real fan of music and leaving everything he has on the stage. A true original.

Whilst a challenge to split your time between artwork, writing and then taking time away in the far regions of Scotland to shoot a new action movie, combining both her acting and martial arts skills, its something she wouldn't have any other way.
