This conversation is between the host James and Jerome Etheridge discussing the Irish singer-songwriter Hozier’s song Taking Me to Church. The speaker explains that the first time they heard the song, they were immediately drawn to its powerful lyrics and calming vibe. James shares background information about the song, including that it was written and recorded in an attic in County Wicklow and was originally released as part of an extended play before featuring on Hozier’s debut album. The conversation then turns to the speaker’s own music, their last single about a blunt. The speaker confirms that they are still working on quitting smoking.

Jerome is asked about recording music in various places and has recorded in some of the best and worst places and the most creative place he has recorded was his friend’s bedroom closet. His friend had it padded out and they closed the door behind them to get the best acoustics. Other people the speaker knows have recorded in the bathroom and one friend even recorded in the shower.

James and Jerome both listen to Cover songs of Hozier’s “Take me to Church” and discuss them.
