Festive Special - Jools Holland

  • Summary

  • With our very best wishes for a less plaguey 2021, we offer you a little festive treat in the form of an interview with the King of New Year himself, Mr. Jools Holland OBE DL!


    A fixture on the UK music scene for almost half a century, first as the keyboardist for Squeeze, then as a broadcaster with iconic (and iconoclastic) Channel 4 music programme The Tube alongside the late Paula Yates, he has also continued as a recording artist, the director of the Jools Holland Rhythm and Blues Orchestra and as a champion of emerging or lesser-known talent via his flagship BBC music programme "Later... with Jools Holland", which has played a part in catapulting many stars into the upper orbits - not least Amy Winehouse, The Buena Vista Social Club and Rag 'n' Bone Man.


    He spoke a little while ago to our Artistic Director Paddy Cooper about his life, career and even his more low-key role as a representative of The Queen within Kent.


    So, if you're preparing for a boogie-woogie New Year's Eve in front of his annual BBC2 Hootenanny, you can't afford to miss this.
