  • S10E16 - Live & Unfiltered (Featuring The Next Wave + The Bones Fund)
    2026/09/03
    This Week on The Be Nation Podcast, we bring Season 10 to a close with LIVE & UNFILTERED — a deep dive into the real side of live music, from mistakes on stage and the challenges of touring, to ticket touting, festivals and the changing live music landscape. We explore whether making mistakes can actually help artists become better performers, meet Isaac Neilson, the British indie-rock artist taking live performance to the extreme by playing shows every day throughout 2026, and look at four very different types of music festivals and what makes each one unique. We also examine the ongoing fight against professional ticket touting, the rising costs and bureaucracy facing British artists touring Europe after Brexit, and the challenges threatening grassroots music venues across the UK. Plus, discover The Next Wave, featuring ten emerging artists you need to know, enjoy two Fresh Finds picks, revisit our Sound of the Week, hear from Ross Harris about The Bones Fund and his mission to continue Liam Payne's legacy of generosity, and, of course, count down the final Be Nation Charts Top 20 of Season 10. And as we reach the end of an incredible season, we say goodbye to Season 10 and look ahead to what's coming next for The Be Nation Podcast.

  • S10E14 – Music & Mental Health (5 Years Later: Aidan Culley, Help Musicians UK)
    2026/08/27
    This Week on The Be Nation Podcast...Music & Mental Health. The music industry is built around performance, pressure and constant expectations — but what happens when the human being behind the artist needs to step back? This week, we'll be debating the latest developments surrounding @katseyeworld and @december10, as members of both groups temporarily step away while prioritising their mental health. We'll also travel back five years to revisit our conversation with Aidan Culley from Help Musicians UK, and ask why so much of what was discussed then still matters today. From the pressure of being an "always-on" artist to performance anxiety, touring, burnout and the growing need for mental-health support across the music industry, we'll explore what happens when the pressure never really switches off. Because behind every release, every performance and every headline, there is a human being. Don't miss a brand new episode of The Be Nation Podcast, available now at thebenationpodcast.com
