FLO join us in the studio for the first time to discuss their latest album ‘Therapy at the Club’ and they are a hoot. We get straight into it: the sisterhood, the songwriting, the haters, and all the drama that goes down at the club (and the club loos - that’s British for bathroom, FYI). They even do a bit of a capella, because, of course, their seamless vocal blending is the bedrock of their sound.

We're thrilled to finally welcome Rebecca Black to the studio. It's been 15 years since she became a global viral sensation at just 13 years old with "Friday"—a song that also made her what many have called "the internet's first punching bag."

No…
