Can't Stop The Pop

Here and Now (Feat. Shaun Kitchener)


Listen Later

We've got a steptacular exclusive this week because Matty and Craig are joined by BAFTA Rocliffe-winning, double Offie-nominated Shaun Kitchener, writer of the forthcoming Steps musical: Here & Now. 

Naturally, we wanted to talk about the song that inspired the title of the show. Released in 2001 as a double-A side with You'll Be SorryHere and Now was the final single from the group's third album, Buzz. There might be a few tears on the dancefloor because Matty and Craig had quite different opinions on this one!

Plus we talk to Shaun about developing a musical based on Steps, his favourite deep-cut album tracks, thoughts on the group's solo endeavours (Faye Tozer album when?) and which Steps song he'd like Kelly Clarkson to cover.
