We – Tallah Brash (Music Editor) and Nadia Younes (Clubs Editor) – were back on the radio this week (1 Jul) for The Skinny's 16th show on Edinburgh community station EH-FM.

Our show happens every Monday from 12-2pm and is your go-to guide for what's on that week in the world of gigs and clubs across Scotland.
