I was on BBC Radio 3 on Friday night, for a live edition of The Verb with Ian McMillan, Sophie Hannah, Attila the Stockbroker and poet/afrobeat collective Benin City. Despite having lost my voice two days before, I managed to claw back 80% of it with the aid of Sanderson’s Throat Specific Mixture- recommended to me by Dr Mcmillan himself. It’s disgustingly miraculous stuff. I have already bought several bottles for the Sunday night of this years Latitude festival.

However, I really recommend listening in to the whole show on iPlayer. Everyone was on great form, I think. And if you like Benin City (and you will), then you should definitely buy their new EP, out at the end of the month. I’m currently planning a grizzly chip-tune remix of one of the tracks, hoho.
