Odd Girl Out: show 54

The big ol' Australian special, featuring a horde of tracks from Down Under, accompanied by an interview with MEN's JD Samson and a rather embarrassing technical faux pas mid-way through, lest I rest on my laurels.

Coming up this week on Odd Girl Out show 52

Well, I have already reached my 80th post, something of a landmark.

Anyway, this week's show features music and conversation with the exuberant Shunda K, once (and future) member of Yo! Majesty and now a solo artiste, whose debut album, The Most Wanted, bows this week.

Plus, tracks by Pink Kross, Class Actress, Cibo Matto, and many, many more!

Here is Shunda K in action:

Coming up on Odd Girl Out show 51

Happy New Year to all. Odd Girl Out returns to the airwaves and, appropriately enough, the theme is "Live". I've assembled loads of tracks from gigs, as well as the odd live track from a studio album. This week's interviews are with Alex Thiele of Britspotting and Candice Pedersen of K Records.
