Music Club this week featured Hannah Wicklund & The Steppin Stones self-titled album and Lil Nas X - Montero.

Nicola's pick for Music Club this week was one of her favourites EVER: Nevermind by Nirvana. It reminded her of a time in her life when she did a lot of stomping.

Electric Light Orchestra dominated Music Club this week with one of their best of albums: All Over The World. Both of us felt like it fed our soul and filled us with joy.
