We talk to Jake Popyura - Musician and Songwriter of the band Supermilk. Growing up in the 1990s, it was hard for Jake Popyura not to be heavily influenced by some of the most wacky and much overlooked movies he'd find on the shelves of his local Video Shop. These films would be a touch point throught his career with the bands Doe and more recently Supermilk leading to even releasing an album on the VHS Format in today's world. We chat all about these events along with his recent life changing diagnosis of Motor Neurone Disease and how he's adapting to not only day to day life but how something as huge as this affects him as a touring musician.
