It's our first episode and we're kicking things off by introducing ourselves musically to each other and to you. We've each picked six of our absolute favourite songs that have been in our lives for years or decades. We listened to each other's picks and we're going to break them down, share our first impressions, and tell some stories about what they mean to us.

Listen along on our Spotify playlist called Music at Work Podcast . We'll update it each week with the songs we're discussing.
