A Bit of Everything with retro fashion icon & singer Lola Lamour. 16/4/15

Ian Rothwell in conversation with retro style fashion icon Lola Lamour. She also talks about the Twinwood Festival on August bank holiday the ultimate vintage music, fashion and dance festival! It’s all thanks in part to her charisma and her dedication to the vintage way of life – her home recreates the 50s/60s feel so accurately that it’s been used as a set for several TV projects. But mostly the success comes from Lola’s supreme vocal talents, song writing, and the musical backing of her Lamours. A unique and original group influenced by the vintage era of singers such as Peggy Lee and Doris Day, singer/song writer Lola Lamour and her band The Lamours released their new EP ‘Looking For Love’ on 30th March.

Their music is a throwback to a time when rhythm and blues actually meant rhythm and blues and big bands ruled the musical roost. Also Lola talks about the Mr & Mrs Vintage UK contest. Braulio and Ross join Ian in the studio from the School of Sound Recording.16/4/15
