The Beatle Bug Radio Show with Mick Francis – Radio Interview
Hello to all Beatle Buggers …
… as Mick Francis regularly welcomes his “Beatle Bug” radio show listeners. We’ve had the honor to be part of one of the episodes just before Christmas 2015 to have a nice little chat and catch-up live on air.

We first met Mick back in 2013 when we were travelling through Ireland with two backbacks and two guitars and visited him in his radio studio in Dublin to do a long interview with him and his colleague Damian Smyth (see photo to the left and Mick to the right). Hopefully we’ll be able to dig out that original conversation at some point, so keep your eyes out for it!
Ever since then, Mick and us have stayed in contact. He is a huge Beatles fan, a musician himself and has written the book ARTPOP: The Roots & Fruits of Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band. Check it out!
When our album ORANGE came out in September 2017 he wrote a really in-depth, interesting and wonderful review about it.
We hope you enjoy the little interview!
Stay groovy,Mona & Lisa
Always enjoyable to listen to these radio interviews you do, even if it is a little difficult to identify which one of you is speaking. Your ‘Winter Wonderland’ performance is just so delightful, I’m going to have to check out the video again. Mick’s Orange review is definitely the go to one for anyone new to the MLTs original music.
I love the interviews, shows how real you all are. I loved Mick’s review of Orange too, especially the anecdote about Paul, which I’m sure you relate. There’s another anecdote that Paul tells on how they would stop to car to listen to their songs on the radio in the early days, just like you were doing some years ago, despite the changing times and technology.
Love it, thank you!
