New York or New Jersey?

As part of our 6 Music Loves New York weekend, Amy takes a look across the Hudson River at her hometown of New Jersey and she is joined by The Shacks.

As part of our 6 Music Loves New York weekend, Amy takes a look across the Hudson River at her hometown of New Jersey.

She'll be joined in the studio by The Shacks who themselves hail from New Jersey and New York.

Expect a light to be shone on all those New Jersey acts and artists you probably thought were NYC through and through.

A broadcaster, performer and writer, Amy has been a regular voice on 6 Music. As well as sitting in for Tom Ravenscroft, Lauren Laverne, Nemone and Steve Lamacq, she has also presented one-off specials. These include the Sunday Service slot last year, where she explored the music that led up to Gay Liberation in the late 1960s, the music that drove the movement forward and the songs that inspired her, as part of 6 Music's Loud and Proud season.
