Trevor Nelson is joined by none-other-than multi-Grammy Award winner Mary J Blige, for this unmissable festive Soul Show special.

The R&B superstar gets us in the seasonal mood she shares her favourite festive memories and music as well as offering a peek into how she spends her Christmas.

Plus she gives us the lowdown on her new album - her first ever Christmas album - which includes collaborations from the likes of fellow vocal powerhouses Barbra Streisand and Jessie J.

Mary J has sold more than 50 million albums worldwide and is known for hits such as Be With You, Be Happy and No Drama, as well as her collaborations with George Michael, U2, Jay Z, Sting, Andrea Bocelli and Rod Stewert, to name but a few.

The singer-songwriter and actress is the perfect seasonal party host as she plays some of her favourite soul records of all time and takes Trevor through the stories behind them in this very special Soul Show.

Expect back-to-back favourites and a sprinkling of seasonal gems from Amy Winehouse, Stevie Wonder, Nat King Cole, Soul II Soul, Luther Vandross, Aretha Franklin and many, many more.
