On this episode of Takin’ a Walk-Music History with your host Buzz Knight, we’re joined by Spider Stacy—tin whistle player, singer, and co-founder of the legendary band The Pogues. Known for their groundbreaking blend of punk attitude and traditional Irish folk, The Pogues created a sound that rewrote the rules of modern music. Spider takes us on a journey through the band’s raw beginnings, their wild ride across world stages, and his own path as a musician, storyteller, and wanderer. From the spark of inspiration found on city streets to the life lessons learned on the road, this conversation is a mix of reflection, humor, and the spirit of a true musical pioneer.
