S4 Ep1: The Sync Report | Dave Rowntree

So here we are kicking off season 4 with Dave Rowntree talking music, politics, missions to mars, Mo Farah, Bros, computer programming and much more. 

When you’re already part of one of the biggest bands in the UK, launching a successful solo career can be daunting, as Dave tells us, but listening to his first solo record he seems to have found his groove. Join us as we ask Dave what took him so long to record his first solo album, what inspired the songs and how he managed to record his album during the lockdowns of covid (remember them?). 

We find out how he moved into composing for film and TV, how much he loves collaborating with other musicians and where his ideas come from. Did you know that Dave converted images into audio as part of the music for the BBC TV show The Capture? Now you’ll have to watch the show to see if you can work it out! Find out how he feels about writing music for other people versus writing music with his Blur bandmates.

Hear how excited Dave is to be playing Wembley Stadium in 2023 and how the band prepares for such a huge show. What was that he said about a new Blur album? Take a listen and find out for yourself.
