The Telescopes - Radio Sessions 2016-2019 (2024)

The Telescopes Radio Sessions collects together the essence of three live session recordings in 3 different countries over a three year period between 2016-2019. This is the third in a series of radio session releases from Tapete Records that have so far included The Monochrome Set and Comet Gain.

The Telescopes have been invited in for many sessions over the years, the first two were for John Peel on BBC Radio 1. They also recorded a session for Marc Riley and Mark Radcliffe before their celebrity when they had a show on BBC Radio Manchester. The band could have compiled this album from those sessions, it was certainly considered but Tapete and the band believe this selection gives an exciting glimpse into that fleeting side of The Telescopes in a constant state of flux that is left mostly to myth and imagination.
