NEW SPECIALIST SHOW ON MI-SOUL - COMING SOON!!!
My Mi-Soul boss Gordon Mac has given me an opportunity to host a brand new specialist show. This means I will no longer be part of the Mi-Soul daytime line up.
I have enjoyed presenting my Without Further Adoo show on Tuesday afternoons for the past two years. It's been exciting especially as Mi-Soul is now available across London on DAB.
As I regularly DJ at Barrio East, Barrio Central and other London venues the opportunity to play music I adore in my sets is exciting. Championing new music and playing timeless classics is what I do 24/7. Hope you will join me. More details to follow.
