Talking Tracks with Snacks

Episode 8: BOBBi

This week we chat to BOBBi, Vancouver-made now London based singer-songwriter who’s making waves at the moment. Her recent track Calling Out ft. Hannie, released on Warner’s W Songs, was played on Love Island and  she’s recently written with Eurovision’s Michael Rice. She’s opened for the likes of Joe Jonas, Carly Rae Jepsen and One Republic. One contentious issue though? She brought toffee popcorn… Hosts: Tania C and Darshaan. Producer: Darshaan. Graphic Designer: Anna Thomas. 

Episode 7: Sarah de Warren

We chat to Sarah de Warren, an EDM-Pop artist who has amassed over 5 million streams and was recently added to the North Star Media roster. We talk International Women’s Day, what it’s like being an independent, self-managed artist and of course about snacks (Sarah brought seaweed!).

Episode 6: Leyma

London based artist Leyma comes to chat to us today. After carving his very own unique genre of "Br-Indie-Hop", Leyma stormed 2019 by being named an NME Top 100 one to watch and releasing a string of tracks played on Radio 1. Only one negative- the snack he brought was “cuppa soup”....
