Nao in conversation

Gilles plays new music including tracks from Ímã, Thakzin and nomi. Plus, he invites soulful singer-songwriter Nao into the studio.

Gilles welcomes East London's soulful singer-songwriter Nao to the studio to present her new album ‘Autumn’, created in collaboration with musician and producer Dave Okumu and focusing on the artist’s love for jazz. Autumn is the first of four season-themed records, A Soulful Suite, that will each explore a different genre and musical language that has shaped Nao throughout her life.

Plus, Gilles plays lots of new music including tracks from Ímã, Thakzin and Lourenço Rebetez; and we hear from DJ and promoter Rob Da Bank about the comeback of his legendary party series, Sunday Best.
