Jo is joined by very special guest Neneh Cherry to co-host the show, talk about life and her new memoir 'A Thousand Threads', which is out now, and play some of her favourite music.

Published on 3rd October, 'A Thousand Threads' is Neneh's first memoir. Telling the story of her life from the very beginning, it follows the legendary singer from childhood growing up in rural Sweden to life in New York, her start in music, her debut on Top of the Pops and rise to stardom to becoming a mother. Neneh found global success in 1988, with her debut single Buffalo Stance. She has gone on to release six critically acclaimed studio albums, won two BRIT awards, been nominated for a Grammy and collaborated with the likes of Cher, Michael Stipe, Robyn, Peter Gabriel, Gorillaz and Massive Attack.
