About 2 Meter Sessions
====================
Based in the Netherlands, 2 Meter Sessions is an independent, ongoing (new) music platform with a great legacy, started in 1987. Monthly we film 3 to 4 sessions with promising and breakthrough acts from all over the world.
Many well-known acts have visited the show; from James Taylor, Elliott Smith and David Crosby to Damien Jurado, Ben Howard and Josh Ritter, via Radiohead, Nirvana, Coldplay and Foo Fighters. Archive footage can regularly be seen in (theatrical) documentary movies, like “Mystify: Michael Hutchence” (with footage of our session with INXS, filmed in 1997), “Heaven Adores You” (with footage of our session with Elliott Smith, filmed in 1998) and “All I Can Say” (with footage of our session with Blind Melon, filmed in 1993).
The show started back in 1987 by radio presenter Jan Douwe Kroeske. On his popular national radio show he persuaded New-Zealand band Crowded House to play a couple of songs. The response of the public was so great, that 2 Meter Sessions quickly became a household name. In 1993, the show made a successful transition to national television. From there the show became a national phenomenon, for over 10 years, with filmed sessions of new talent, breakthrough acts and arrived career artists. Almost a million of 2 Meter Sessions cd’s were sold in the Netherlands.

Why is Gaz Coombes not getting the exposure he deserves for his more mature solo work - amazing.
Gaz ❤
The mans brilliant.
True artist that can play live and it sound just like the record. Gaz the man.
agree
👌🌹🌹🌹🌹
saw Supergrass twice, still one of my all time favorites In It for the Money gets a spin every few months like clockwork.
His voice has held up so well and his singing might even be superior to his younger days.
Absolutely BRILLIANT!!!
Seen Gaz 3 times this year. Yes I'm probably abit of a stalker but it's worth it 😂
Gaz Coombes what more can I say. 🥰
Gaz❤
Great interview. Gaz just comes across as such an open friendly guy. I love Supergrass and hes lost absolutely nothing since those days.
I wish I saw what you do.
A couple of years back Supergrass were practicing and playing festivals, even "Jimmy Kimmel," and were "together." Watching interviews from that time, I got the impression Gaz wasn't as excited by all of that as maybe the others were. Here we see that he's only made another solo record after Supergrass spent the better part of two years promoting themselves.
An important part, I think, in those interviews with Supergrass, especially in front of Mick, was when the interview said that Supergrass had been on "indefinite hiatus" since 2009 (IIRC). When the interviewer said that, Gaz quipped back with, "no, we broke up." He played that up for the camera and the interviewer, as if to say, this isn't as important to me as it is my former bandmates. Mick and Robert were left silent. In context, completely tactless to the point of tasteless.
I think there's an ego here. No doubt, Gaz is an amazingly talented songwriter. He's chasing a more mature sound than Supergrass had back in the day, obviously. Supergrass was a fun band with a fun sound. Their later albums showed more maturity, but didn't sell as well unfortunately. Gaz's solo work is barely making the Top 10 for a week, and that is with this album. Supergrass peaked, album sells-wise, with I Should Coco at No. 1 and progressively trended down to Diamond Hoo Ha at 19, all very accomplished IMO. So I think this propels Gaz to shy away from "fun" and towards the more mature sound, leaving him separate from Supergrass. Could also be that Supergrass' much better rhythm section isn't ready or willing to fit a more mature approach to music, I don't honestly know.
I guess, what I want, is to see the band back together, maybe that leaves me a little biased; maybe a lot. I'd imagine more people want that too. That interview though. For years I thought Mick was the reason the band broke up. That interview made me think Mick was proud of what went down in the Here Come The Drones sessions and that Gaz was not. I watched those music shorts the day they came out and was really bummed when I heard the news...
For the life of me though, I can't fit Hot Rats into my theory!
@@Phaleel Maybe i havent watched enough of him being interviewed to cast the wider view you have. Im refering only to this video... and he comes across well and performs brilliantly.
Great video as always. Love these 2metersession versions.
Great. All of it.
Sweet voice ❤❤
The keyboard player uses a Critter and Guitari Pocket Piano? Wow.
I saw you front row center at Lakefest. I crossed over to see Johnny Marr. I 'm contemplating cross the pond again. ❤❤🇨🇦 I'm happy to hear you are supporting. ❤️ ❤
Gaz and Marr sounds like a good band to me.
This stuffs classy as foook.
Great singer (also love Supergrass) ♥
Amazing!
Art.
Thanks 2 meter session 🤍
Your concert in Doornroosje (Sleeping Beauty) was stunning. Your voice sounds almost angelic to me with a hint of "yes, I know life on Earth is hard. Please keep fighting for the good things in life. There are so many" I loved meeting you afterwards. You were lovely and a sweetie pie. Thanks for a lovely evening and more ❤ You gave me some joy back, as lame as it sounds. And your friend Oly was wonderful too. Too bad his band wasn't there but considering he did a very good job. Ode to Oly Ralfe
💯💯💯
I cry often, and a lot, when listening to music, to all kinds of music, I can even get emotional with an AC/DC song. It happens to me with a few Supergrass songs, Mary, She's so loose , and a few others. I didn't know why, if it was just an spontaneous reaction to beauty. It can be very well what Gaz says, a simple change in chords may trigger the emotion.
I hear you. Mama & Papa does it to me, as does the bit on the live version of Bad Boy Boogie when everything kicks back in after Angus’ stripped back solo - I always think “this time it’s not going to get me!’ but it does every bloody time 😢 Weird 🤷🏼♂️
it happens everytime with this part of the song
"I need someone to be around
'Cause I'm breakin' into lies
Somebody stop me
'Cause I'm lookin' for my
Lookin' for my high"
song: cheapskate.
😊I read it as, 'English Rose' by The Jam.
Great set ❤😊
Come up
great stuff
Very interesting interview and great rendition of songs of course. I also like the design of your room!
Supergrass were a great band - perhaps under appreciated as Britpop is really looked down on at the moment. But Gaz's solo records are really really under rated IMHO. He's really grown as a solo artist record after record. I think those albums stand up against much more acclaimed records.
Worlds strongest man is one of my go to albums
Was geweldige 2mtr sessie van Supergrass toen.
Mooi dat jullie Gaz nu solo ook laten spelen met zijn nieuwe band.
JD is 👌🏻🤟🏻
Thanks!
Love the show and the interview. How great it is to see Gaz´s new work! Thanks 2mettersession you guys rock and Gaz too!!!🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾
Thank you!
first song wasn't my thing, was about to switch off, thank fuck I didn't, the last 3 tunes were brain meltingly beautiful, possibly the first solo project ive seen in my life that seems like a band of people and not just hired guns and a boss
Third solo album? Bombs, Matador, Strongest Man... description of this video is wrong
Thanks for correcting it to fourth 😊
Oops.... Come up north of the border soon! 🙂🌹🌹🌹🌹

Did Supergrass get the Sideburns in the divorce settlement? 🤣
