We did 13 weeks of radio programmes on the network to tie in with the Jack Daniels Revive Live campaign and Live to Vinyl gigs at Metropolis Studios (Kokoroko, Nilufer Yanya and The Snuts). During the series we had so many incredible artists join us for interviews and live sessions from the likes of Sampa The Great, Art School Girlfriend, Anish Kumar, Bria Salmena, Ishmael Ensemble, Ady Suleiman, Ellur, Keaton Henson, Yoshika Colwell, Kuleeangee, Tom Vek, Lava La Rue, Petite Noir and many more.
