About the Podcast

I’m Nick Tann – musician, songwriter, performer and this is your Fresh Music Fix.

If you’re the kind of person who still gets a thrill from hearing a killer riff, a soulful vocal, or a lyric that stops you in your tracks, you’re in the right place. Maybe you’ve been stuck listening to the same albums for years — the ones you wore out on vinyl, cassette, or CD – but deep down, you still believe in the power of a great song. Well, good news: they’re still being made.

Every week, I dig into a global stash of new music from unsigned and independent artists and handpick the tracks that truly stand out. Each episode features four full-length songs – no half measures, no background fluff, just great music, played in full and given the space it deserves. I’m usually joined by my co-host Chris Smith, a man deeply rooted in the UK music scene, and together we chat through each track with a blend of curiosity, insight, and the occasional friendly disagreement.

You’ll hear music that echoes the energy, songwriting, and spirit of the classic bands you love- but it’s fresh, raw, and happening now. No labels. No hype. Just real songs from real people.

We release a new episode every Monday, and you can listen right here on the site or on all the main podcast platforms. Just hit one of the buttons on the episode pages and they’ll take you where you need to go.

Whether you’re rediscovering your passion for music or already deep in the hunt for something new, Nick Tann’s Fresh Music Fix is your backstage pass to the best independent music out there.

Come on in. Let’s find your next favourite song.
