Describe your style in three words?

Timeless, classic, blue.

The first track you played on repeat? And where did you play it?

Slade - Coz I Luv You

In my bedroom when I was 5.

A song from your favourite album? And what does this track mean to you?

Elvis Costello & The Attractions - King Horse

I was obsessed with Elvis Costello's music from the age of 12 and I still am. I used to race home from school every day so I could put this on.

A song from your most memorable gig?

Smokey Robinson & The Miracles - The Tracks Of My Tears

The Roundhouse, Camden Town. He kept us waiting for ages but it sure was worth it.

A song that always gets you up and dancing?

Jeffrey Osborne - Stay With Me Tonight

Automatic triggers me - I'm Up! What a groove!

A new song you're listening to? Why do you like this artist?

Aldous Harding - Zoo Eyes

She is mesmerising, mysterious and very funny. This song is captivating.

Best song to turn up loud? And why?

Thin Lizzy - Rosalie (Cowgirl's Song) - Live

Ferocious brilliant live recording of Bob Seger song. I turn it up to 11 in the car.

A song that defines the teenage you? And the memories it evokes?

The Smiths - Barbarism Begins at Home - 2011 Remaster

Playing it over and over again in bed on my Walkman, awestruck.

An anthemic song? Why does it get your pulse racing?

Sam Cooke - A Change Is Gonna Come

That voice, that melody, those words...

Best song to end an all-nighter?

Sarah Vaughan - Embraceable You

Deeply classy and so gentle - like being in intensive care.
