Michael Kiwanuka in session

Mercury-nominated singer-songwriter Michael Kiwanuka joins Jo in studio for a live session, ahead of the launch of his third album Kiwanuka.

Mercury-nominated artist Michael Kiwanuka joins Jo in studio for a live session, ahead of the launch of his third album 'Kiwanuka'.

'Kiwanuka' is released on 25 October 2019 through Polydor Records and a UK tour will follow in March 2020. The album sees the singer-songwriter return to the studio with Danger Mouse and Inflo, the duo he worked with on his last album 'Love & Hate'. He describes the new album as one that "explores what it means to be a human being today. It is about self-acceptance in a more triumphant rather than melancholy way.”

And whether you’re picking up or dropping off, Jo provides the soundtrack for the Taxi Service.
