Unseen is a brand new urban fantasy series from the team behind Wolf 359 and Zero Hours, two of the most celebrated indie productions in the podcast space. Written and directed by Gabriel Urbina, Sarah Shachat and Zach Valenti, it's set in a 21st century world where magic is real - only most of us can't see it. Starring talent from shows all across indie audio drama, including Wooden Overcoats and The Bright Sessions, you can download every episode for free on iTunes and other podcast providers. I love working with this team, and the results have sent a shiver down my spine with every episode released so far.
Meanwhile, for those of you with Audible credits to spare, give a listen to Winding Road, a new 10-part mystery drama written and directed by Clare Sladden. A famous musician disappeared without trace 25 years ago, leaving emotional devastation in his wake. Now two podcasters are determined to solve the mystery with the help of his family, but the lines between 'voyeur' and 'subject' grow increasingly blurred, and somebody on the property is willing to go to violent lengths for their own purposes...
Starring Dacre Montgomery (Stranger Things) and Yael Stone (Orange is the New Black), Winding Road examines celebrity, obsession and musical passions, and was made with help from Screen Queensland. It's a deviously clever series, exploding the investigative podcast format, and its production team have done some stellar work to get it released into the world this year.
