I absolutely love the mix we’ve got going on in the NOU playlist this week! You might have already seen me talking on Insta about how much I love Heart On Your Sleeve by Hushtones – it’s been on repeat in my house all week, and I couldn’t help but squeeze it in between some pure, uncensored rock and roll from The Shivas and The Snuts, where it fits perfectly to start off a cracking midweek playlist with lots of local Manc goodness with a sprinkle of Liverpool sass!
Playlist: Don’t Believe in Guilty Pleasures #05
Can you believe it? The week has flown by, and it’s that time again. This playlist starts with possibly one of the greatest intros ever written, and calls for full volume from track one… Let’s call it a warm up for the big Neighbourhood Festival happening this weekend in Manchester (which I’m incredibly excited for!)

Playlist: New/Old/Undersold #04
I’m not sure whether it’s because I’ve been drumming to a lot of old school Franz Ferdinand this week, but this Tuesday’s playlist is very disco beat heavy + I LOVE IT. I can’t stop dancing around the room to The C33s, Sugarstone and Red Rum Club tracks, so thought I’d share some of the joy!

Happy Friday!
You know the ‘Don’t Believe in Guilty Pleasures’ playlist drill by now; follow Dave Grohl’s example and ‘if you f**king like something, like it.’
All the tunes you love to love, whether you’re getting ready for a night of dancing on tables at Mojos, or hiding from this cold weather under a blanket, with a takeaway and a glass of wine (I’m getting to the age where this is becoming a difficult choice).

Playlist: Don’t Believe in Guilty Pleasures #03
Looks like we made its ladies and gents! Friday night has arrived, I’m not working or on call for once (**smug dancing lady emoji x10**) so get your dancing shoes on and grab a cheeky glass of wine (or maybe put your feet up with a nice cuppa tea – no one’s judging here, promise).
Tonight I’m bringing you some incredibly guilty pleasures, including some Northern beauties, and I’m not even sorry.
HAPPY FRIDAY!
