Marty Wilde

In this electrifying instalment of Chatterbox Redux, Nick and Sue sit down with the man who helped invent British Rock ‘n’ Roll: the incomparable Marty Wilde.

From the smoke-filled basements of the 2i’s Coffee Bar in Soho to the top of the charts and beyond, Marty takes us on a journey through eight decades of music history. This isn't just a trip down memory lane; it’s an unfiltered look at the grit, the glamour, and the evolution of a career that outlasted the trends. Nick and Sue pull back the curtain on Marty’s songwriting secrets, his role in the "Wilde" musical dynasty, and why—at almost 87 years young—his passion for the stage remains undimmed, with a new album, EP and tour for 2026.

In this frank and honest interview Marty even tackles the subject of death. He is the most interviewed artist of Nick & Sue, which is evident in how much Marty is enjoying the interview. Nick believes he has interviewed Marty seventeen times in total,
