Girl About Town - Nico โ€” 8 March 2026

My International Womenโ€™s Day episode aired last night on The Face Radio out of Brooklyn, New York ! The latest Girl About Town features Black women artists.

I kept to the 1960s covering rhythm and blues, jazz, northern soul and funk. Enjoy! xx ๐Ÿงก

TRAINSPOTTING โ€” Released in the UK on this date 30 years ago! I remember the fanatical excitement at the time. I was working at HMV at the height of Brit Pop and a fan of Irvine Welshโ€™s books. I had an original movie poster at the time but with moves and time it got damaged! This poster was a gift ๐Ÿงก

Seven years ago today โ€” my first trip to Detroit. What a special place. The architecture, music, and people.

Visiting the Motown Museum was magic. Just knowing all the artists that walking through those doors. So much beautifully rich history โค๏ธ

Eight years ago getting With It! Love when these memories pop up. This was a fun night. The usual suspects looking sharp and having a grand old time. Itโ€™s been lovely to receive messages from friends about the change. Iโ€™m incredibly grateful and happy that people appreciated what was built. โค๏ธ

What an intense race for leadership. It was a matter of choosing how we get to a better place.
