Birmingham's Music renaissance man
Photo: Graham Young, Birmingham Live |
With some fifty years in the business across a
dizzying range of bands and activities, John Mostyn is endlessly
interesting. He's done the mega-deals, battled with the music
industry at the very top levels, and he's worked just as hard on
small local projects which simply deserved some help.
And he has some
incredible stories.
There's a lot to be gleaned from listening to
John's experiences. Not that John minds; he's always been happy to
share and lend a hand. And there are always, always, new projects, which you might never have considered in a month of Sundays.
This is a companion blog piece to the John Mostyyn Lives in Music Podcast, which you can listen to here. Or just scroll down to the bottom of this page and listen to the embedded file.

Lives in Music
The Lives in Music series celebrates people who
have spent a lifetime in music. They may be famous; they may be
people who have spent their lives working in the background for the
love of it. But they all have stories.
The intro and outro music in this series comes
from the great bass player Mike Hatton, who you can
hear interviewed in series 1, here.
'Everything Changes' is included in his excellent
2019 album 'Bassic
Salvation'.
