Paul MacInnes is away, so Rosie Swash is in the hot seat this week with a power-pop theme to the show.
Firstly, Rosie speaks to Ladyhawke - a 26-year-old pretender to the pop throne. Pip Brown is a mutli-instrumentalist who loves Fleetwood Mac and isn't ashamed to admit it, and has been touring the world pretty much relentlessly with Black Kids, but the rest of the time the Kiwi-born singer calls London her home, and Rosie asks her why she ended up in the UK and what disasters have happened to her onstage.
Rosie also gets Esser into a headlock. She grills Ben Esser, formerly the drummer with avant-garde group Ladyfuzz, but now a solo purveyor of electro-pop under his own surname. He talks about the transition from tub-thumping to singing (he doesn't like it that much), Butlin's, Joe Meek, and being bewildered by love.
