LISTEN: GIHE on Soho Radio with YAKKIE (05.02.26)

Tash, Kate and Mari were back on Soho Radio celebrating their 11 year anniversary and bringing listeners another eclectic mix of new music tunes from some of their favourite female, non-binary and LGBTQIA+ artists.

They also celebrated the launch of Tash’s new book! Published via the esteemed Faber, The Log Books is an “intimate exploration of inter-generational queer heritage, charting four decades of LGBTQ+ life in Britain through the call logs of a charity helpline.” Tash spoke about the launch event at Royal Vauxhall Tavern and their upcoming UK book tour – full details of which can be found here.

Janey and Robin from independent punk band YAKKIE also joined them live on air to talk about their highly anticipated debut album, Kill The Cop Inside Your Head – due on 13th February. A heavy album for heavy times, Janey spoke eloquently about the inspirations behind the record and how it’s important to remain hopeful and support each other in the face of oppression and injustice. Robin also discussed the “sick riffs” that soundtrack YAKKIE’s manifesto and they both performed acoustic versions of their latest single ‘He Sleeps Alone’ and new album track ‘Secrets’.

YAKKIE will be playing a London headline show at The Victoria in Dalston on 21st March to celebrate the release of Kill The Cop Inside Your Head. Grab a ticket here.
