Plus: new album All Things Considered (out January), recorded in snowy Connecticut, and a double A-side ,My Biggest Nightmare and End the Day With You, along with a ruthless round of Green or Gone.

Dara’s back with another excellent edition of The Greenlight Podcast and this week he sits down with singer songwriter, Ryan Mack who has quite a story to tell from supporting a certain Fox Avenue in The Academy as a teenager, to BIM, to getting “the phone call” that landed him in Louis Walsh’s boyband Hometown.

Ryan lifts the lid on the madness of auditions, RCA meetings, touring with the likes of McFly, The Vamps and Olly Murs, and that moment when the label just… went silent.
