Craig opens up his trunk of funk to play classic Motown, northern soul, R&B, gospel and contemporary remixes.

The Craig Charles Funk & Soul Show will be channel hopping from BBC Radio 6 Music to BBC Radio 2 at 9pm for 1 hour. Craig will be opening up his trunk of funk to give you classic Motown, Northern Soul, R&B, gospel and contemporary remixes that will form an hour of party tunes.

We'll also be hearing from a Secret Soul Girl / Boy, who'll be picking their favourite funk or soul tracks. It could be from an actor, comedian or even sports folk. Mr Charles will also be bringing you a funk or soul track that's never had a spin on Radio 2 in 'New to 2'. We need you to let us know what track you'd like to hear and who we need to be playing it for.
