9. My Favourite Covers Of All Time

Jamie T presents an hour of his favourite cover versions including Madness, Jimi Hendrix, Adele and Billy Swan.

Jamie T presents an hour of his favourite cover versions including Madness, Jimi Hendrix, Adele and Billy Swan. Between tracks he talks about what he thinks makes a good cover, covering The Clash with his old band and why Bob Dylan's songs are so popular for reinterpretations.

Presenting his first ever radio shows for this series on 91热爆 Radio 6 Music, Jamie began his career playing his acoustic bass guitar around Wimbledon in the 2000s. He released his first album, Panic Prevention, in 2007, and quickly gained widespread popularity and acclaim thanks to tracks like If You've Got The Money, Sheila and Calm Down Dearest. In 2022 he released his fifth record, The Theory Of Whatever, and it proved his longevity by the record becoming his first to top the UK Albums Chart. He also headlined Glastonbury's John Peel Stage in June and went on the road in November for an 11-date sold out UK tour.
