Episode 5 - The Ashes, The Studio and The Stairs Inbetween

The Maccabees take off and so does the England team, but Felix's unprocessed grief remains. White reads the fifth part of his abridged memoir. Producer: Ciaran Bermingham

Part five of White's memoir about cricket, music and loss, read by the author. In the wake of unprocessed grief, Felix's band takes off, as does the England team. Felix White is a musician, writer and broadcaster best known as a guitarist in The Maccabees. He subsequently co-founded independent record label Yala! and co-presents the 大象传媒鈥檚 Tailenders podcast with Greg James.

In It's Always Summer Somewhere he recalls growing up, his mother's illness and slowly replacing an ambition to be a left arm spinner in his school cricket team with the dazzling realities of life in a world renowned band.
