07/07/21 • 42 min

This week you’re in for a treat as I’m joined by the brilliant female force that is Kelly Kiara.

Through this conversation we talk about confidence, sexuality, vulnerability and going viral verses networking and establishing new material, all through the lens of songwriting and storytelling. It’s a really well rounded chat with a lot of self-reflection so I hope you enjoy and it makes you smile listening through.

What Amy Winehouse Taught Me About Timeless-ness

I often wonder who will be the artists of today which we’ll look back on and toast to as being truly great. I think to have that status of being an icon, like The Beatles, Bob Dylan, or Aretha Franklin, your music needs to have an enduring sound, and that isn’t necessarily tied to popularity of the day.

The strange thing for me about someone like Amy Winehouse was that I remember seeing her on T4 running around doing some hilarious mad press thing with SImon Amstell way before Back to Black. And then I watched as she grew up and delivered these songs that just were so distinctive, so moving, so timeless and so cross generational.

While there are lots of recent and fascinating documentaries about Amy out there what I really wanted to focus this episode on was how she created and established herself in the first place. She made really great music but there’s a lot that goes into that beyond just having a great voice and natural ear so that’s what I’m going to be digging into.

What Chaka Khan Taught Me About Diva

This week I’m taking a look at a soul icon who was a huge influence to many including Aretha Franklin, Prince, Erykah Badu and Kanye West.. One of the great divas, who’s life has not been without its battles. Having begun her career in an otherwise all male band, Chaka was an un-diminishable star.
