Not many producers enter into the industry at quite the rate or age that this week’s guest did, but at just 21 years old, Charlie Deakin Davies was already producing countless artists, winning prestigious awards and producing the audio for Balcony TV.

Fast forward to now, and after two years working as one of Gary Barlow’s in-house songwriters and producers, Charlie has an established career working with some of today’s hottest musicians and bands. Alongside this, Charlie has co-founded the Trans Creative Collective, drawing from their own experience as gender non-binary and wanting to create more opportunities for other trans creatives.

Girls Twiddling Knobs is hosted and produced by Isobel Anderson with production support from Jade Bailey and Francesca O’Connor and is a Female DIY Musician Production.
