It Must Be Old Town Underbank Mix Part One -June 2022

It Must Be Old Town Underbank Mix Part One -June 2022

I put this mix together for the good people at Old Town General Store https://www.oldtowngeneralstore.co.uk) in Stockport.  

I am a massive fan of the shop and in the picture I am wearing a Kestin https://www.oldtowngeneralstore.co.uk/collections/kestin) over-shirt, Armor Lux https://www.oldtowngeneralstore.co.uk/collections/armor-lux) t-shirt and Dubblewear https://www.oldtowngeneralstore.co.uk/collections/dubbleware-men) jeans.

The second in our regular playlist feature. Old Town General Sounds Volume 2 has been curated by friend of the store John Eccleston (@johneccleston on twitter).  

A northerner living down south, sharing the house with a wife, kids, pets and too many trainers - although there’s always room in the wardrobe for stuff that catches my eye. Spending most of lockdown trying to be a better cook, while also trying to not eat my way into the next size up.
