EP28 - Neil Percy11 Aug 202101:01:04

Neil Percy is the Principal Percussionist of the LSO and Head of Percussion at The Royal Academy of Music so he has plenty of tales to tell about everything related to percussion. It was wonderful to finally have the chance to have a good chat and gossip with him which I have to confess ran way over time so we had to cut this episode down a bit because we could have talked all day so Let's get Listening!

My guest today, Sound of Metal actor, Riz Ahmed shares his extraordinary experience of learning American Sign Language, becoming a drummer and putting his body through rigorous work-outs all in the space of a few months.

Carol Jarvis is an exceptional musician who has been on an incredible journey - touring with Seal whilst battling cancer and flying back to the UK for blood transfusions between gigs!

EP12 - Edeline Lee18 Nov 202000:44:19

I met Edeline Lee, the successful fashion designer when I reluctantly agreed to be a catwalk model in one of her shows. Today's podcast was much less scary, although I did mark the occasion by wearing one of Edeline's beautiful tops! When I chatted to Edeline I got an insight into the feat of engineering that goes into making each piece of clothing and the importance she places on the person wearing the finished product. I am so inspired by how she listens to her customers and literally takes care over every hand stitch - I hope you will be inspired too so Let's get Listening!!

EP2 - Bill Bailey19 Feb 202000:43:36
When Bill Bailey pounced on me backstage a couple of months ago at a charity event for Great Ormond Street Hospital, telling me about his experiments with percussion instruments, I felt I had to get him on my podcast to find out more about him! I think he might have only stayed to chat to me because there was a promise of food and his tummy was rumbling so much, but I found out lots about how he prepares for his shows, his hilarious theory on how music developed and what the first drummers sounded like! This episode still has me chuckling – thank you Bill!

I’m so excited to be starting my new podcast and I can’t think of a more excitable guest than YolanDa Brown! I’ve worked with YolanDa several times and appeared on her vibrant children’s TV show – YolanDa’s Band Jam, but it’s great to be able to sit and chat with her about what music means to her, how babies react to it in the womb and how she came back to music from academia.
