Hot Press Volume 46 Issue 05

In the run up to the Pride celebrations next month, we’re thrilled to present a special dual-cover edition of Hot Press!

On one cover, you’ll find the brilliant Wallis Bird and the one and only Panti Bliss. As she gears up to release her stellar new album Hands, Wallis chats to Panti about growing up gay in small-town Ireland, the attractions of Berlin, her decision not to have children, and the accident that changed her life forever  – and, arguably, put her on the road to stardom.

Folk-pop maestros Hudson Taylor also get a special cover of their own. The brothers chat to Alexandra Anderson about authenticity, pre-tour excitement, and the lockdown creative surge that inspired their fabulous new album, Searching For The Answers.

Elsewhere in the issue you’ll find interviews with Def Leppard, Warpaint, SOAK, Sigrid, the cast of Heartstopper, Bulelani Mfaco, Arcade Fire, the cast and creators of Conversations With Friends, Belle and Sebastian, Ye Vagabonds, Ailbhe Reddy, The Blizzards, Catherine Prasifka, Suki Waterhouse, Colm Bairead, Siobhan MacGowan and much more…

So don’t miss out! Pick up your copy of the new issue of Hot Press now…
