A big welcome back to Benedict Cork<\/a>, and the Honeymoon Trio, who gave an impromptu performance of Something Kinda Strange<\/em> in Studio 1, as they rehearsed for upcoming album preview shows in the US & Europe. This song has gone on a bit of a journey, having been ripped off and put on Spotify by an AI imposter! You can read more about what happened in the article in TIME Magazine<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We’ve not seen Benedict since he invited us to his awesome show at Bush Hall a couple of years ago, we hope to catch him in the UK soon, and if you’re a fan of heartfelt soulful pop, sung by one of the sweetest voices out there, you should too!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
