Wisebowm - The Struggle is Real
Project type
BBC Radio 4 Show
Date
2019
The highly creative and talented comedian Steve Whitely's stand-up character Wisebowm got commissioned for a pilot on BBC's Radio 4 back in 2019. Steve and I (Steve 1 & Steve 2, the two Steves, etc etc.) set to work collaborating on some poets set to beats. Steve on poems, Steve on beats.
After several iterations, we had three demos that were to be re-recorded for the BBC pilot. You can listen to the entire show here. The two Steve's music is found at the top and tail of the show, as well as smack bang in the middle:

The combo of Steve on vocals and Steve on piano was one that this Steve, at least, thought made some great and quite hilarious results.
Maybe the Steves will collaborate again some day soon. I hope so!
