As the dust settles, your hosts Fay Milton and Greg Cochrane take a look back Earth Day 2022. It was an extraordinary one for music responding to the climate crisis – we take at look at some of the highlights. 

Meantime, in our on-going pursuit to look at all the ways the music community is responding we welcome two guests onto this week’s episode: rising Manchester singer Pip Millett and vegan chef and YouTube star Rachel Ama. Together the friends are the co-creators for Pip & Rachel’s Vegan Food Truck, a project they brought to life at one of Pip’s concerts in 2022. That opens up a discussion about the rise of vegan food at gigs and festivals, and how food and music both play an essential role in our physical and mental wellbeing. How they both make us feel good. 

As always, Fay and Greg also leave you with some recommendations.
