Primordial Radio is excited to announce guitarist, singer, songwriter and good friend of the station, Big Boy Bloater is set to take part in the Radio Residency for the month of November.
The Radio Residency is hosted by Adam Whalley and is a series of four exclusive shows that air every Wednesday at 10am (GMT). Across the Residency, Adam and Big Boy Bloater discuss the shifting landscape of the music industry, tackling subjects from the Kickstarter campaign for Bloater’s new album Dirty Disco Blues to the impact of streaming services like Spotify.
Bloater shares insights on the challenges of selling music gear, the thrill and toll of live performances, and his evolving creative process. The two discuss Bloater’s life in France, his latest gardening pursuits, and the personal spaces that inspire his music. Throughout the conversation, Bloater reflects on his journey—from writing about swamp monsters to experimenting with blues influences—and the ups and downs of performing post-pandemic.

Big Boy Bloater has launched a crowdfunding campaign to bring his first new album in nearly seven years, Dirty Disco Blues, to life. Following his last release, Pills, Bloater is eager to share 10 brand-new tracks with his fans, but he needs community support to make it happen by the November 30th deadline.
Here’s how the campaign works: fans can pledge €15 (around £12), and if enough supporters join to reach the funding target, the album will go into production with a January release date. As an extra perk, supporters can choose to receive a signed copy of the CD. However, if the target isn’t met by the deadline, pledges won’t be charged, and the album won’t move forward—meaning Bloater’s latest work stays unreleased.
For fans and blues enthusiasts wanting to be part of this project, now is the time to lend a hand and spread the word. Big Boy Bloater is calling on his supporters to help bring Dirty Disco Blues to life, reminding them that, together, they can make this album a reality.
