  • Blue-in-Green:PODCAST_#144_Germana Stella La Sorsa
    Jun 30 2025
    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.

  • Blue-in-Green:PODCAST_#143_Zola Marcelle
    Apr 14 2025
    Welcome to Episode #143 of the Blue-in-Green:PODCAST which this week sees Imran connect with singer, songwriter and producer, Zola Marcelle. 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.

  • Nu-Skool Soul remembers Angie Stone
    Mar 23 2025
    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
