In this episode of Ampocalypse, Damian FitzGerald sits down with Bailey Spinn to dive into the story behind her explosive new single Homicide — an anti-Valentine’s Day anthem that flips expectations and showcases her evolution into heavier, more emotionally charged territory. With her debut album Loser already released in 2025, Bailey reflects on the journey behind the record, what it represents for her as an artist, and how it has shaped her current sound.

The conversation explores what it means to release a full album in the modern streaming era, the power of social media in shaping an artist’s career, and the unique challenges of breaking through as part of a new generation of alternative artists. Bailey also shares her ambitions for future tours and how she’s connecting with fans on a global scale, offering an honest and insightful look at life as a rising artist in today’s music industry.

Of course, this is Ampocalypse… so things take a turn. In the second half, Bailey faces a hypothetical end-of-the-world scenario, revealing how she’d survive when everything falls apart — and what role music would play when it matters most.

20:58 Surviving the Apocalypse

In this episode of Ampocalypse, Damian FitzGerald is joined by Zia McCabe of The Dandy Warhols to explore the band’s upcoming covers album Pin-Ups. Known for their unmistakable blend of alternative rock, psychedelia, and sharp-edged attitude, The Dandy Warhols return with a project that reimagines a selection of songs that have inspired them throughout their career. Zia discusses how the band approached choosing the tracks for Pin-Ups, the creative challenge of reinterpreting well-known songs, and how they manage to inject the unmistakable Dandy Warhols sound into material that fans may already know inside out.

The conversation also dives into the process of reshaping familiar music into something fresh, the freedom that comes with recording covers compared to original material, and what keeps The Dandy Warhols creatively driven after decades in the alternative rock scene. Zia offers insight into the band’s musical influences, their collaborative chemistry, and why revisiting classic songs can sometimes reveal unexpected creative directions.

Then the Ampocalypse arrives. As nature reclaims the planet and human civilisation collapses, Damian and Zia explore how she — and possibly The Dandy Warhols — might survive when the world as we know it begins to disappear. Expect dark humour, imaginative survival strategies, and a reminder that music might still be one of humanity’s most powerful tools even at the end of the world.
