PODCAST: Show Me Magic! Ones to Watch 2026

For the first Show Me Magic podcast of 2026, Bill Cummings and Jim Auton pick out some of their ones to watch for 2026. They discuss the new bands and artists they are excited about for this year, the gigs they have coming up in the next twelve months, festivals, and more. They also chat about doom scrolling, digital detoxing, and Veganuary.

Plus they talk about why some new bands are being more mysterious, the balance between growing an online following and touring to build an audience. They also chat AI, Geese, Dutch Music, Focus Wales, folk pop, indie pop, soul, new releases and much more.
