In this very intimate episode of Turn Up The Volume! from The Stables in Milton Keynes, Nick speaks at length to three much-loved guests who are coming to the venue in the next few weeks, with exclusive tracks from all three of them.

Legendary singer, songwriter and broadcaster Tom Robinson opens up about the challenges he faced in his childhood, the success of the Tom Robinson band, how War Baby resurrected his career and why Sing If You're Glad To Be Gay remains as important as ever.

Thea Gilmore has just released a gorgeous eponymous album, marking for her a fresh start after an extremely difficult period in her life. She talks to Nick about coming out the other side, feeling stronger than ever.

And Nick finally gets to chat to someone who loves Bruce Springsteen as much as he does! With a new baby boy in the house and yet another superb album released after over 40 years in the business, Martyn Joseph is one of the best live acts around. He talks about fatherhood, musicianship, covering The Boss, and how he and his wife make a huge difference to people in need via their charity.
