Skin has been in the music industry for over 30 years, making music and headlining festivals with her band Skunk Anansie. She currently hosts her own show on Absolute Radio, where she interviews her musical heroes, famous friends, and the most exciting up and coming talent. From Debbie Harry to Paul Weller to Arlo Parks, Skin and her guests relive past experiences, swop stories on and off tour, look ahead to new music, and generally just spill the tea. But there’s only so much time on radio. So, finding the chats touching, interesting and inspiring, Skin wants to give you the chance to hear the full conversations in all their glory – just a couple of musicians having a heart to heart. This is Skin Tings.
