Such A Good Feeling with Steve Anderson

My guest today is the incomparable, the beautiful and the divine Tessa Niles who has featured as a backing singer on countless hits and has performed on stages with the the most iconic artists in the world including David Bowie, Robbie Williams, , The Police , Trevor Horn, Pet Shop Boys, Tina Turner Kylie and at one of her first ever shows, Live Aid.

She recently published her autobiography “Backtrack” to incredible critical acclaim and with huge success. I’ve been blessed to know her professionally and personally for more years than either of us care to remember and it was so lovely to have this catch up in London’s glittering West End. Hope you enjoy!

Anya Jones epitomises the reason for this podcast in that she is one of the only people I know to successfully make the transition from A&R where at Syco she was instrumental in  up 120 Million sales including for Little Mix, Susan Boyle and Ella Henderson to a world class songwriter currently enjoying success with Kylie, Birdy. Dylan, Benjamin Ingrosso , Tom Grennan and Rita Ora amongst others . Her emotional connection to music is one of many reasons why I've always adored her and you'll hear it so many examples of it throughout this wonderful episode.

Joanna Woodward has without doubt one of the finest female voices I’ve ever worked with , on top of that she is an established West End leading lady with roles in " The Time Travellers Wife" and "Beautiful" amongst others , a cabaret legend and also a bonafide superhero. Her incredible honesty in opening up about mental health and personal family situations has helped so many people and above it all she continually shines , brighter than ever to the complete wonder and joy of every audience member lucky enough to be watching her.

I hope you enjoy it and if you do please follow/like the podcast to hear all previous episodes and make sure you don't miss out on the amazing ones to come. Thank you for listening.

Martyn Ware is one of the true pioneers of electronic music both as a founding member of The Human League , Heaven 17 and British Electric Foundation. He’s also a highly respected producer with credits including Tina Turner, Terence Trent D'arby and Erasure and most recently a revered podcaster with his brilliant “Electronically Yours” series. I've admired his work tremendously from an early age discovering the League's early work like "Being Boiled", Dave Seaman and I remixed "Temptation" as Brothers In Rhythm in the 90s and we were lucky enough to have Heaven 17 perform at 80s Classical recently so this was such an honour for me to talk to him. Hope you enjoy.
