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

Band Of Skulls - Bruises

This album came out the year I had my first ever major festival experience (Reading fest obvs) but as well as majorly soundtracking that summer I am just absolutely obsessed with how they produced this album and how rich in layers it is.

A song from your most memorable gig?

Black Honey - Midnight

Black Honey played Electric Ballroom for the first time last autumn. It was the last night of the UK leg of the tour and the biggest headline show they had played to date. The whole night from start to finish was a rollercoaster of nerves and excitement.

Maggie’s music has an irresistible quality that just drags you up on your feet and gets you dancing.

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

Best song to turn up loud? And why?

The Amazons - Mother - Single Version

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

My Chemical Romance - I'm Not Okay (I Promise)

Angsty teenager + Gerard Way screaming that he’s not ok + a music video where the band plays outcast teens at a secondary school? Need I say more.

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

Florence makes this song so powerful. Everything she touches she converts into anthemic power. I love the pushes in this song and the way it drives forward

Best song to end an all-nighter?

The War On Drugs - Strangest Thing

Listen to this as the sun rises and then try and tell me I’m wrong.
