    2025/11/28
    Welcome to Episode #147 of the Blue-in-Green:PODCAST which sees Imran connect with Leona Berlin. The always sensational Berlin-based singer, songwriter and producer returns with her third full-length album, 'ELEVATE'. Berlin's music has consistently touted the benefits of individuality, self-awareness and self-confidence and the importance of those values as a starting point to move forward. Whether it be earlier single releases including 'Cage', 'Feminine Energy' or more recent efforts with 'Who You Are', Berlin has consistently created statements of anthemic impact that continue to position her as the benchmark for today's R&B and neo-soul artists. We're incredibly grateful for Leona's time which includes us recounting her recent travels to India and Nepal, the release of the new album, the creative process and we discuss Leona's relationship with AI and it's burgeoning impact on the art and world around us.

    2025/07/14
    Welcome to Episode #146 of the Blue-in-Green:PODCAST which this week sees Imran connect with bassist, multi-instrumentalist and composer, Sunim Koria. It's been four years since we last caught up with the indelibly talented Lutterworth-based artist for an excellent conversation revolving around his debut full-length release 'Ecstasy & The Apple Tree'. A project that found its inspiration from the late-90s/early-00s broken beat soundscapes typified by luminaries including Deborah Jordan and Kaidi Tatham. Sunim's latest release sees his music take a completely new direction with a scintillating big band-inspired project featuring seventeen musicians entitled 'Cantata'. An incredible feat and passion project born of Sunim's vast-ranging ability and limitless talent. We're incredibly grateful for Sunim's time which includes us revisiting 'Ecstasy & The Apple Tree' four years later, discussing the mechanics of putting 'Cantata' together, his affection for Brian Wilson and future musical projects.

    2025/07/07
    Welcome to Episode #145 of the Blue-in-Green:PODCAST which this week sees Imran connect with singer-songwriter, Holly Holden. As part of Holly Holden y Su Banda alongside Frank Clarke and David Beauchamp, Holly was able to hone her affections for Latin music into some fantastic releases including 'Tropical Soul' (2017) and 'Green Guava' (2020). Her latest project, 'al andar', however sees the London-born artist take the bold step and assume the helm for an album that serves as a powerful and introspective journey shaped by years spent living and writing in Latin America. From Mexico to Colombia, heartbreak to healing, we trace the winding path that brought these songs to life. We're incredibly grateful for Holly's time for this conversation which sees us discuss her devotion to travel, her time living abroad, the differences in creating music as part of a band and as a solo artist, working with and collaborating with Greg Sanders (Teotima, Lophae) and the upcoming UK performances in support of the new album. To explore 'al andar' further, please feel free to visit the album's Bandcamp page: https://hollyholden.bandcamp.com/album/al-andar www.blueingreenradio.com www.blueingreenradio.com/p/listenlive.html TuneIn: bit.ly/2LBK0BD The Blue-in-Green:PODCAST runs in conjunction with the online radio station, Blue-in-Green:RADIO which celebrates 21st century soul, jazz, funk, Latin & hip-hop music.

    2025/06/30
    Welcome to Episode #144 of the Blue-in-Green:PODCAST which this week sees Imran connect with Italian singer, songwriter and producer, Germana Stella La Sorsa. In celebration of her third full-length album, Germana teams up with acclaimed London guitarist Tom Ollendorff for 'After Hours' — a sublime six-track duos project. Featuring reinterpretations of classics like The Beatles' 'Because' alongside a reinterpretation of a past La Sorsa release, 'In Time and (S)Pace', the record is a striking showcase of Germana's vocal finesse and expressive range. Whether soaring alongside a single guitar or fronting larger ensembles as on her previous releases, 'Vapour' (2021) and 'Primary Colours' (2023), Germana continues to captivate with artistry and intention. 'After Hours' marks a beautiful evolution in her sound — intimate, warm and engaging. We're incredibly grateful for Germana's time and generosity in this conversation, which explores her artistic journey so far, the inspirations behind 'After Hours', and her admiration for artists like Gretchen Parlato and George Benson. It's a thoughtful, inspiring listen for fans of vocal jazz, musical collaboration and fearless creativity.

Following a string of standalone single and EP releases dating back to 2018, the multi-faceted Zola Marcelle releases her debut full-length album entitled 'Home' unveiled through the hallowed walls of London's Jazz Re:freshed. Adding her name to the revered Jazz Re:freshed lineage which includes Kaidi Tatham, Nubya Garcia and Richard Spaven, Zola's exceptional credentials to date have seen past collaborations alongside Daniel Casimir and Ashley Henry as well as having secured coveted touring duties alongside Myele Manzanza. 'Home' serves as an inspired depiction of Zola's creative peak to date - a fascinating and compelling portrayal of an artist examining the concept of "home" as an individual as well as an ideology within a greater tapestry of culture and heritage. We're so appreciative of Zola's time for this conversation which sees us delve into her career to date, the ideas and inspirations that brought 'Home' to fruition, the album's incredible supporting cast including Lewis Moody and Rudi Creswick, Jazz Re:freshed and London's thriving jazz landscape.

    2025/03/23
    Nu-Skool Soul airs Tuesdays at 6pm(UK) with Imran Mirza continuing his adventures within the expansive realms of R&B, neo-, nu- & alt-soul. If we can play something you love then that's great, but if we can play a song or two you may not have heard before, then that's even better! Music on today's show celebrates the music of the dearly departed #AngieStone. With the incredibly sad news of Stone's passing on the 1st March, we're honouring her music and memory the only way we know how. Charting a fantastic career beginning in the 1970s as a part of the Sequence, Stone saw further success as a part of Vertical Hold before becoming a solo artist in her own right with the release of 'Black Diamond' in 1999. A slew of solo albums would follow cementing Angie Stone as a leading name amidst the early years of neo-soul. Tonight's show showcases an enthralling selection of tracks from Stone's solo catalogue including remixes, b-sides and collaborations featuring names like #TheNeptunes #Guru #MacyGray #DAngelo #AliciaKeys #Eve #Calvin #Jaheim #PeerDu #Azire #ReelPeople #RaphaelSaadiq + more... http://www.blueingreenradio.com http://www.blueingreenradio.com/p/listenlive.html TuneIn: https://bit.ly/2LBK0BD

  • Blue-in-Green:PODCAST_#142_Ben Blackadder
    2025/02/07
    Welcome to Episode #142 of the Blue-in-Green:PODCAST which this week sees Imran connect with producer, Ben Blackadder. Boasting a consistent batch of exceptional single releases over the last two years, the Nottingham-based artist was initially introduced to audiences via his lush single for David Hanke's Bathurst label, 'Near'. A brief hiatus brought him back with a vengeance with a slew of single releases including 'On My Mind', 'Fragile', 'Ebb' and 'Dust', each proving to be an outstanding showcase of multi-faceted, dance-floor friendly sublime electronica. Blackadder's latest single 'Nightfall' finds itself as an excellent extension of Blackadder's warm and intimate textures, bolstered by exquisite use of vocal samples that delivers another gem amidst the Blackadder catalogue. We're so appreciative of Ben's time for this conversation which sees us delve into his production techniques, establishing himself as an independent musician, embarrassing encounters with musical icons and how the quarantine period in 2020 set him on his musical pathway. To explore the Blackadder releases so far, please feel free to visit the Bandcamp page: https://blackaddermusic.bandcamp.com/music www.blueingreenradio.com www.blueingreenradio.com/p/listenlive.html TuneIn: bit.ly/2LBK0BD The Blue-in-Green:PODCAST runs in conjunction with the online radio station, Blue-in-Green:RADIO which celebrates 21st century soul, jazz, funk, Latin & hip-hop music.
