Dr Hook (showing my age here) is a band that I’m a big fan of but I always get funny looks. The ones who know them are surprised k can sing along to their back catalogue. I blame my mum, she constantly played them.

What’s your band that’s not the usual popular choices?

I like james blunt and that doesnt seem to be a popular choice, but then I've never been one to follow the crowd.

Nowt wrong with that, although not a lot of people know that it was entirely written and composed by a German guy called Frank Farian

Tis odd, because I pretty much only like music from before I was born and always have. I like the odd bit from the 90s and early 2000s, but for me, music stopped happening circa 2010-ish. I have no idea what's current, but I can sing the entire Buddy Holly and Roy Orbison back catalogue
