“I really enjoyed meeting James Studholme.

“The man is a Soho ad legend who awoke one day in the middle of his life and thought: what I need to do is to start a band which combines American country with English folk.

“This he did. The band is called Police Dog Hogan, and in our interview above, the charming Studholme discusses punk, the creative process and the importance of doing what you love.

“Here, below, is the video for Police Dog Hogan’s new single, “West Country Boy”, which will be familiar to anyone who has been to a pub in Devon. Reminds me of the Sunday night open mike nights I used to do at The Hunters Inn in Heddon Valley.

“The band have a number of gigs coming up. Click here to go to their website.”
