Mary Anne Hobbs is joined by Du Blonde, formerly known as Beth Jeans Houghton, to talk about reinventing your entire persona.

Beth's second album 'Welcome Back to Milk', due for release this May, will be her first release under her new name Du Blonde, and marks not only a change of look for the artist, but also a completely different musical direction.

Mary Anne had the world exclusive premiere of her heavy first single as Du Blonde, 'Black Flag', and is excited to welcome her onto the show.

Expect tunes from other great musical innovators, including Bowie, Captain Beefheart and Frank Zappa.
