Kate Nash is our special guest in the pod this week and she's been telling us about keeping it real, hitting the big time, working with Paul Epworth on her new album, and hanging out back stage with Akon (which is enough to make anyone want to phone their mum apparently). We also have a highly exclusive unplugged version of 'Foundations' to play for you, too. The afore-mentioned album, Made of Bricks, is out on Monday and early reports suggest you will not be disappointed.
Also in the show, Rosie tells us about the sad demise of New Order, while in the dongles reviews we ask; is Dizzee being big and clever with 'Pussyole'? Is Robyn really the best thing to happen to pop music since the invention of the USB single (we jest)? And is Richard Hawley going to top 'Coles Corner' with his latest album?
Finally, we finish off the show by discussing brass bands. That's right, we've got the Hot8 Brass Band and the Central Band of the Royal British Legion in the house, not just because we love horns nearly as much as Mark Ronson, but because they've been responsible for some unlikely, but compelling covers of top pop tunes.
All of which made us think: if you know of - or are capable of producing - a cover with unusual or inappropriate instrumentation, send us an mp3 and we'll play the best ones to the world.
