Always great to have new music from Little Simz. I can’t make it to her show at the Royal Festival Hall on 22/6 but will definitely catch her at the O2 on October 17th. Other new stuff from Poncho Sanchez, Astels, Soothsayers, Wild Iris Brass Band …

RIP to both Sly Stone and Brian Wilson. Heartfelt thanks to both of them for their timeless music. This show was recorded before their deaths, both aged 82, but they will definitely feature in my next show.
