Creageivity
If you think you may be too old to be creative, or too creative to be old, then CREAGEIVITY is the podcast for you. Hosted by artist / musician / writers Adrienne Thomas and Harlan Cockburn, each show brings illuminating and inspiring conversation with people who have kept on keeping on in their chosen field... or started some entirely new activity in later life.

Creageivity 15 - with Singer / Songwriter / Performer Graham McGregor-Smith
Graham McGregor-Smith took a long detour as a Chartered Accountant, and then stay-at-home Dad before eventually launching himself into music. Having started with a love of AC/DC, he became influenced by the Great American Songbook, with artists such as Frank Sinatra and Tony Bennett. However it was many years before he was able to progress things, when a chance meeting in a park led to him start realising that he can write highly melodic, lyrically-charged songs, and - as he says in the podcast - 'show off' by performing them live. Also performing live in the podcast is an elderly Westie dog called Polo, who has recently received a fresh lease of life!
Graham's new album, Road To Anywhere is also his debut album (and there's an endurance cycling-related story behind the title) which he is now promoting and performing live. So does he see Madison Square Garden performances, and songwriting credits for Lady Gaga beckoning? Listen to Creageivity 15 to find out.
You can also hear three songs from Graham's album, two of which feature an unusual solo...
