Today Sue and Nick are joined by Canadian born country singer Savannah Jade, who is returning to the Chatterbox Redux studio for the second tome in just a few months. Savannah Jade has quickly distinguished herself as a standout voice in Canadian country music. Named Rogers Radio’s One to Watch and Acadia Radio’s Breakthrough Artist, her single “He’s The One” was also highlighted as a Trending Track by Stingray Radio—solidifying her rising momentum within the industry. With more than 4.6 million global streams across just two singles, Jade is proving she’s a force to be reckoned with. Following the release of her debut self-titled EP and standout performances at Cavendish Beach Music Festival, Big Valley Jamboree, LASSO Festival, Festival Country Lotbinière, Canadian Country Music Week and Nashville’s iconic Whiskey Jam, 2026 is already shaping up to be an exciting year, with confirmed appearances at Boots and Hearts Music Festival and Musique Fest Premier Tech.ABOUT SAVANNAH JADE: Born and raised in Québec, rising country star Savannah Jade took an interest in music and live performance at an early age when she became captivated with the beauty of an unlikely medium—opera. While her musical pursuits would come later, she first channelled her passion for performance into a career as a professional figure skater, a skill she continues to nurture to this day. She used her love of the sport as inspiration to help others, coaching new athletes, establishing a figure skating program for students in her hometown's high school, and starting a foundation committed to providing financial aid to aspiring talents hoping to realize their own dreams. In 2013, after auditioning for The Voice Quebec, Savannah Jade knew without a doubt that a career in music was something she wanted to pursue. She embarked on her musical journey with fervour, becoming one half of the dynamic Canadian country duo, Five Roses. Signing with MDM Recordings Inc., Five Roses made their debut with the single "Might As Well Be Me," which garnered over a million collective streams, earning them the prestigious title of iHeartRadio/Pure Country Future Star. Savannah Jade's talent and command of the stage shone as they were named semi-finalists in the 2022 Sirius XM Top of the Country competition, and she continued to hone her craft at major festivals like Boots and Hearts Music Festival and LASSO Music Festival, and as direct support on Tebey’s Shotgun Rider Tour. In 2024, Savannah Jade made her solo debut with the song "He's The One," which has garnered over one million streams and continues to climb. The track earned Stingray’s “Trending Track” designation and led to her being named a “One to Watch” by Rogers Radio. Imaginative, innovative, and adaptable, Savannah Jade is a true artistic force. Alongside her musical and figure skating endeavours, her creative spirit truly knows no bounds. She uses painting as an additional medium to express herself and is a trained hair stylist, adding another layer to her diverse skill set. Her love for fashion has led her to design her own clothing, continuing her journey of self-expression through art. Continuously working on new music, Savannah Jade is forging her own unique path down a fresh creative avenue, and captivating audiences with her vision, talent, and artistry.Recorded in January 2026

Today we are joined by Canadian singer Savannah Jade, who talks about her new EP and the release of her single "I Don't Have Exe's (I only have Why's?"Savannah Jade is quickly becoming one of the most promising new voices in Canadian country music. Named Rogers Radio’s One to Watch and Acadia Radio’s Breakthrough Artist, her breakout single “He’s The One” was also recognized as a Trending Track by Stingray Radio—firmly establishing her momentum in the industry. With over 3 million global streams across just two singles, Jade is proving she’s a force to be reckoned with. Following a standout performance at Cavendish Beach Music Festival earlier this summer, she’s set to take the stage at Big Valley Jamboree, LASSO Festival, Festival Country Lotbinière, and more.

Today we are joined by Jay Messerli, lead singer of the Swiss Indie band The Souls, who are currently supporting Scouting For Girls in the United Kingdom and Republic of IrelandThe Souls are an alternative rock band from Switzerland whose explosive live energy and polished song writing have taken them from European club stages to international tours across the USA and Asia. With over 450 shows worldwide, the band have built a reputation as a formidable live act and a powerful modern rock band with global ambition. Formed in 2010, the five-piece quickly gained international attention, leading to support tours with Lenny Kravitz, The 1975 and Kodaline — placing them early on the radar as a band with serious crossover potential. Their debut album Eyes Closed, produced in Los Angeles by Greg Collins (U2, No Doubt), launched them onto the international stage, followed by extensive touring across Europe, the UK, the USA and Asia. Festival appearances at Reeperbahn Festival (Hamburg) and Music Matters (Singapore) further cemented their international credentials, alongside recording sessions at London’s legendary Eastcote Studios. Their fourth studio album The Whippet Inn, recorded in London with Andy Wright (Simply Red, Eurythmics) and Gavin Goldberg, will be released on 20 February 2026. The album marks a bold new chapter for the band — blending arena-ready hooks, raw alternative edge and cinematic production — and firmly positions The Souls as a breakout international rock act for 2026. With their biggest release to date and an aggressive international touring strategy, The Souls arrive in the UK ready to make serious noise.The album The Whippet Inn was created in London in spring 2023. Inspired by time spent in the pub of the same name and recorded live as a band at Eastcote Studios, the sessions marked a conscious turning point for The Souls. After two self-produced albums, the band felt the need to open up again and allow space for external mu sical influence. Working closely with producers Andy Wright (Simple Minds, Simply Red) and Gavin Gold berg (Neil Young, KT Tunstall) well before the recordings began, it quickly became clear that this producer duo could fully realise the band’s creative vision. The Souls deliberately abandoned perfectionism, recording the songs live in one room to preserve raw energy and genuine emotion. Lyrically, the album moves between social commentary, desire, secrets and fractured relationships. It follows no rigid concept, but rather what felt honest in the moment — a direct and hopeful record about chaos, intimacy and distance, and the urge to lay everything bare. The first single “Bangladesh” unfolds like a fever dream driven by longing — an escape to a place where reality and fantasy blur and desire takes on a shape of its own. It serves as a musical distillation of the album: raw, im mediate and real. At the heart of “Nightingale” lies the question of whether it is better to embrace change or remain within the comfort zone of familiar routines — a dilemma we repeatedly face throughout life. For the band, Nightingale rep resents the act of savouring every moment, even when we know it is fleeting and cannot last forever.Interview recorded in March 2026

Today Nick & Sue are joined by Sussex singer-songwriter Ben Westwood is back with his first new music in several years. His new single, soulful ballad Step Into The Light, is produced by Mark Edwards, and taken from Ben’s upcoming album We Are Human. Filmed on the seafront of Ben Westwood’s hometown Eastbourne, Step Into The Light’s video reflects the song’s message of hope and optimism, featuring Ukrainian refugee and now Eastbourne resident, Pilates instructor Olga Litvinova.Ben Westwood's entirely self-penned 11-track album showcases a unique style, blending soul and folk roots with blues and alternative rock - as if Leonard Cohen and Marvin Gaye had recorded an album together, according to Ben. His distinctive voice draws on classic influences - from the Beatles and 1960's folk to Motown soul. The album combines love songs Step Into The Light and Save The Best For You with upbeat soul on When You’re Gone, and more reflective material such as the title track, We Are Human, which examines fears over the growth of AI, and gospel-style protest song, We Will Have Our Freedom. Ben previously had success before the pandemic with his album Sing Like Your Life Depends On It, which dealt with his struggles through grief as a widowed single father, including songs such as Falling and Time Heal Me. A remastered version of Time Heal Me is included on the new album. Ben has been writing songs since the age of 14 and studied music in London with respected artists Tom Baxter and Ben Cullum, brother of Jamie. He has played at venues including the Brighton Dome and Ronnie Scott's, and received airplay on BBC radio. Outside music, Ben is a college lecturer, published author and former journalist, appearing regularly on TV and radio. “Straight from the heart #nofilter, this is music that is honest and unafraid.” – Camilla Lake, East Sussex Newspapers INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT BEN WESTWOOD He was once arrested for robbery in London on a case of mistaken identity.

Christopher Wyze first entered a recording studio at the age of sixty five, thus proving It's never too late to chase your dreams, knock down doors, and prove at any age, you can do it. He is also pretty damn good and he tells us all about it in this hilarious interview.Synopsis and Press Release.MEMPHIS, Tenn. – Big Radio Records artist Christopher Wyze & The Tellers flip the script on Valentine’s Day with their new single, “Her Name In My Song,” an anti-love anthem with a twist. What begins as a sweet love song gradually reveals the truth: the relationship is over. The track takes a sharp turn at the end when he makes it clear that her name will never make it into his song. Honest, relatable, and cleverly written, it captures that all-too-familiar moment when love turns into heartbreak, proving not every Valentine’s song comes with a happy ending. “Her Name Is My Song” was premiered by Center Stage Magazine.To purchase/stream: CWandT.lnk.to/HerNameInMySongPR“Her Name in My Song” is not your typical love song,” shares Wyze. “It’s actually a break-up song. For a lot of folks, Valentine's Day brings up memories of a painful breakup. If that’s you…then give it a listen. I’m willing to bet you’ll feel a lot better when you hear what the guy in this song did to get back at his “ex.” I had fun writing it. And you might even get a chuckle at someone else’s expense.”
