In Episode #171 of The XS Noize Podcast, host Mark Millar is delighted to engage in a captivating conversation with Peter Hooton and Keith Mullin from The Farm.

After a triumphant series of festival appearances and the debut of fresh tunes during the summer of 2017, The Farm reunited, igniting a resurgence in their recording endeavours. Although their plans for the digital release of the Feel The Love EP across all streaming platforms were initially set, unforeseen circumstances, including illness and the onset of the pandemic, caused an unexpected delay. However, during the confines of lockdown, the band persisted in their creative pursuits, culminating in the recent release of a compelling series of tracks via Ditto Music.

One such track, Let The Music (Take Control), emerges as a vibrant fusion of electronic elements, drawing inspiration from the innovative sounds of Kraftwerk and invigorated by dynamic guitar riffs. A pivotal moment in the genesis of this track occurred during a live performance, coupled with a serendipitous encounter with the legendary guitarist, composer, and producer Nile Rodgers, whose influence left an indelible mark on the song’s evolution. The band’s creative journey continues unabated, with a promise of new releases slated throughout the course of 2024.

In this interview, Peter Hooton and Keith Mullin offer insights into the genesis of their latest songs and provide a tantalizing glimpse into their forthcoming album. Furthermore, they delve into the rich tapestry of The Farm’s back catalogue, exploring their favourite songs, their Liverpool Music Icons Tour and much more.
