Tonight I chatted to Tom from local acoustic duo Black Cherry Pop Tart. Tom and singer Lisa have become regulars in Brentwood with their appearances at The Swan’s open mic nights, and can be seen this Saturday at a charity gig at Charlie’s Bar. They are also available for weddings and other events, so don’t be surprised if they pop up somewhere near you soon! The duo can be heard and contacted via their Facebook, Soundcloud and Twitter pages.

Click below to hear Tom discussing, among other things, loop pedals and what random cover BCPT are planning next…
