Story

The NHS is a gift to everyone in Britain, looking after us and always there. The Covid19 pandemic has proved how essential they are and funding cuts need to be addressed. Stoke-on-Trent DJ, Terry Bossons wanted to thank them by the power of music. The rainbow has been the symbol of the NHS, so the song ‘Chasing Rainbows’ by Shed Seven would be a fitting tribute. Terry asked the lead singer of Shed Seven to get involved with the project and without hesitation he jumped onboard. Next, a crescendo of indie music royalty joined the fold: Nigel Clark and Matthew Priest (Dodgy), Clint Boom (Inspiral Carpets, Gary Powell (The Libertines), John Power (Cast), Keith Mullin (The Farm), Chris Helme (Seahorses), Dave McCabe (The Zutons), Alan McGee (Creation Records), Baz (The Fratellis), Ryan & Jack Dooley (All The Young), Alfie (Holloways), Matt Bowman (Pigeon Detectives), Johnny Dean (Menswear), Leon Meya (Northern Upraor), James McColl (The Supernaturals), Rikki Turner (Paris Angels), and Billy Bibby (Catfish and the Bottlemen), teamed up with radio royalty Mark Radcliffe and Eddy Temple-Morris to make this happen in seven days!!!
