Bill Ryder-Jones: Grief, The Coral and the Wirral

In this week's episode of DIY's Before They Knew Better Podcast series, indie hero Bill Ryder-Jones joins us for a very raw, personal chat about his childhood and what it is to grow up alongside an event of devastating trauma. He talks about losing his older brother Daniel, who fell off a cliff on a family holiday when Bill was seven, and the salvation of joining The Coral as a teenager, alongside tales from West Kirby County Primary (later eulogised in the his album of the same name) and more. It's an emotional listen, and we love Bill. Enjoy. Full series https://bit.ly/3SpMQhB
